Method
step 1
Mix the yogurt with the mustard, lemon zest, dill and capers and season with pepper. Now use to coat the salmon really well.
step 2
If serving now, either grill the salmon on foil for 6-8 mins (there is no need to turn), or barbecue for 3-4 mins on each side, preferably in fish grill to make turning easier. Serve with new potatoes and lemon wedges, alongside green veg and salad leaves.
RECIPE TIPS
COOK A WHOLE SIDE OF SALMON
If using a whole side of salmon instead of fillets, roast it at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 25 mins or cook on foil in a kettle barbecue for 15 mins. Check regularly, as cooking times vary depending on the thickness of the fish.

I baked the salmon in the oven. The topping provided a very nice, tangy balance to the rich fish. Great midweek supper with some new potatoes and green veg.

for us the topping with the yoghurt did not really work. maybe next time i should use less yoghurt or not use it at all but it was very overpowering and i found the consistency weird of the yoghurt together with the consinstency of the salmon....

I thought the marinade tasted a bit bland so added a few drops of fish sauce and salt, but messed up and added too much salt! I added some extra yoghurt, garlic, squeeze of lemon juice, couple of tbsp mayo and fresh mint and it was delicious! Will do this one again but with the additions.

Was not sure about the marinade before cooking, nearly blew my head off but - once cooked, absolutely delicious however, did not enjoy the leftovers once cold - will cook again even the children tucked in.
