How to Make Barbecued salmon skewers with raita

Preparation time:

30 mins to 1 hour

Cooking time:

10 to 30 mins

Serves:

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 75g/2¾oz natural yoghurt
  • 1 garlic
  • 2cm/¾in piece fresh root ginger
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp ground turmeric
  • ¼ tsp mild chilli powder
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • 375g/13oz (approx. 2 large fillets) salmon
  • 2 lemons

For the raita

  • ¼ cucumber
  • 60g/2¼oz natural yoghurt
  • large handful fresh mint
  • ¼ tsp golden caster sugar
  • ½ lemon or lime, juice only

Method

  1. Mix the yoghurt, garlic, ginger, spices and salt together to create a paste. Add the salmon, stir, then leave to marinate for 20 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, soak 4 wooden barbecue skewers in cold water.

  3. To make the raita, gently squeeze the cucumber to remove any excess water. Mix the cucumber with the yoghurt, mint and sugar and add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice, to taste. Set aside.

  4. Preheat the barbecue.

  5. Thread the salmon onto the skewers, alternating two salmon pieces with one lemon slice, folded in half.

  6. Cook on the barbecue for 10–15 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through. Serve with the raita.
