  • 50 ml oyster sauce

  • 1 lime, juiced 
  • 50 ml olive oil
  • Sea salt

 

Horseradish mayonnaise

  • 2 free-range egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 ½ tablespoons sherry vinegar
  • Salt and pepper 
  • 300 ml grape seed oil
  • 1 tablespoon warm water
  • Juice of ½ lemon

Parsley Salad

    Method

    1. Prepare the horseradish mayonnaise: In a food processor, blend egg yolks, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. While the motor is running, slowly drizzle in the grape seed oil in a thin, steady stream until the mixture thickens and emulsifies. If it gets too thick, add the warm water. Finish with lemon juice and the grated horseradish. Set aside.

    2. Marinate and skewer the salmon: Cut each salmon fillet into five 8 mm-thick strips. Thread the strips onto skewers, weaving them through two or three times to hold their shape. In a bowl, mix oyster sauce, fish sauce, lime juice and olive oil. Add the skewered salmon and marinate for 5 to 10 minutes

    3. Grill the salmon skewers: Preheat your grill or teppanyaki plate to its highest setting. Place the salmon on the hot grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side. Turn and cook for 2 more minutes until just charred and cooked through. Remove and keep warm until serving.

    Top tip for eco-friendly grilling: Choose natural lump charcoal instead of briquettes to cut emissions. Keep the lid closed to save energy and cook your fish more evenly. For more tips please visit our Foodie's Guide.
