Foil Baked salmon
Ingredients:
1 ½ lb piece of salmon fillet or 4 , 6 ounce pieces
Chopped garlic
Grated ginger
Half a lemon
Method :
First take a sheet of foil large enough to wrap the fish in, and lay it over a shallow baking tin.
Wipe the pieces of salmon with kitchen paper and place on the foil. Then place the chopped garlic, grated ginger and juice of half a lemon over the fish and season with salt and pepper.
Then bring the foil up either side, then pleat it, fold it over and seal it at the sides. .Pull the foil in the middle to tent over the fish
All this can be done in advance, but when you need to cook the salmon, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 4, 350°F (180°C) and bake the salmon on a high-ish oven shelf for 20 minutes exactly.
