Notes

Be careful not to overcook the salmon; it should remain slightly pink in the centre to ensure it stays moist and succulent. Overcooked salmon can become dry and lose its delicate flavour.
Serve with extra lime wedges for squeezing over to enhance the freshness.
A side of fries makes this a wonderfully satisfying meal for the whole family.
