Instructions

• 1 Wash and pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towel. Remove skin if present.
• 2 Place a piece of parchment or clingfilm on a plate. Mix the salt, coconut sugar,
  and chopped coriander in a bowl and spread half of it in the middle of the
  paper. Place the salmon fillets on top and cover with the reset of the salt rub
  mixture. Press the rub down into the fish with your fingers making sure the
  fillets are evenly covered. Wrap the fish into a parcel and store in an airtight
  container in the fridge for 12-24 hours.
• 3 After the curing time, remove the salmon from the fridge and unwrap from the
  paper. Rinse the curing rub/marinade (it would have liquified by now) under cold
  water really well. Place the salmon fillets on a chopping board and dice into
  small cubes.
• 4 Prepare the salad ingredients and add to a mixing bowl. Add the diced, cured
  salmon. Drizzle with lime juice, sesame oil, coconut aminos (if using) and olive
  oil, and sprinkle with a little chilli. Mix through really well and serve in a
  big bowl or on plates, sprinkled with some sesame seeds and extra coriander.
• 5 If serving with potatoes, prepare those ahead of time.
