Ingredients

Preparation

  • Place the cedar plank in water for 30 min. You can use oak, beech or apple wood as well if you can't find cedar.
  • Heat the grill. Wipe the plank and place the salmon fillet on the plank, skin side down.
  • Place the plank on the grill and put the lid on. Grill for about 20-25 min. 
  • Boil the potatoes and make the herb oil while you wait.
  • Towards the end of the grilling time, cut wedges of fresh cabbage and grill them on the side.
  • Cut a lemon in two halves and grill them too. This adds a nice sweetness to the fish when squeezed over.
  • To make the herb oil, chop herbs and garlic. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon juice.
  • Serve the salmon on a large platter on the plank with grilled spring cabbage and a squeeze of grilled sweet lemon.
  • Pour over the herb oil and enjoy the juicy salmon together with small potatoes, sour cream, some aioli and extra herbs.
