First Of The Year!

[wimp]

First salmon of the year and i'm not talking about that farm crap you get. Salmon doesn't need any fancy cooking.Bring to the boil in salt & malt vinegar and i kept the tail for cutlets to go under the grill with butter,delicious!What way would you have a salmon and what would you have with it?

[askyourgran]

I have two salmon fillets for tea tomorrow. I will wrap them in foil and put in some butter sprinkle a little salt and parsley or dill, put in the oven for around 20 mins. Serving with new potatoes, salad, and fresh brown bread. Yum.
