Salmon goes southwestern

Andreas Trauttmansdorff

Ingredients

  • vegetable oil

  • 1 lime

  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise, or regular sour cream

  • 1/4 tsp oregano leaves

  • 1/4 tsp cumin

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp chipotle or regular Tabasco sauce

  • 180 g skinless salmon fillet

  • 2 tsp finely chopped fresh basil, or coriander

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F (200C). Lightly coat a pie plate or small baking dish with oil. Cut lime in half. Set one half aside. Squeeze out juice from other lime half into a small bowl. Stir in mayonnaise, oregano, cumin, salt and Tabasco.

  • Place salmon on pie plate. Spoon mayonnaise mixture overtop. Bake in centre of preheated oven until a knife tip inserted into centre of fish comes out warm, 12 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with basil and squeeze juice from reserved lime half overtop. Great with jasmine-scented rice and avocado slices.
