Salmon goes to Thailand Fish code 130505 Serves 2

Perhaps the best way to appreciate our wild salmon steaks is to treat them very plainly, but they won't object to a little fuss, either...
2 salmon steaks
2 tbsp peanut oil
2 sticks lemon grass
2 very small red chillies
1 inch of root ginger, peeled and finely chopped
30g/1oz creamed coconut
1 lime
Salt and pepper
1 Preheat oven to 200C/400F/Gas 7.

2 Wash steaks and pat dry.

3 Cut two pieces of aluminium foil, large enough to wrap steaks.

4 Place a steak in centre of each and season with salt and pepper.

5 In a pan on a low heat mix oil, lemon grass, chilli, ginger and coconut. Stir for five minutes. Take care not to burn.

6 Pour the contents of the pan over the steaks.

7 Fold the foil over the salmon, crimping together on top.

8 Put parcels on a baking tray and bake in oven for 10 minutes.

9 Remove from oven and open parcels. Remove herbs and chillies. Serve with half a lime. We suggest you serve with aromatic rice.
