Maple-smoked salmon

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 40 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

2 x 600 g salmon or trout fillets
4 T Woolworths trout pearls
sea salt and freshly ground black or green pepper, to taste

For the lemon cream:

2 T butter
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 cups cream
4 T lemon juice

Method

1. Attach the fish to 2 soaked pieces of maple wood using wire, then place over medium coals. Alternatively, place hot coals in a cast-iron wok and place the wood inside the wok, then place the wok on a tripod with the coals under it. Cook until the fish is opaque. I prefer salmon a bit rare.

2. To make the lemon cream, melt the butter in a pan over medium coals and add the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, then add the cream. Simmer for 4 minutes, then add the lemon juice.

3 Remove the fish from the wood and serve with the lemon cream and trout pearls. Season with salt and ground black or green peppercorns.
