Steps:
- Pat the salmon dry with kitchen paper and run your hands over the flesh to see if there are any stray small bones – if there are, use a pair of tweezers to pull them out. Set the salmon fillets aside.
- Tip the salt, sugar, peppercorns, lemon zest, juniper and dill into a food processor and blitz until you have a bright green, wet salt mixture or ‘cure’. Unravel some cling film but keep it attached to the roll. Lay the first fillet of salmon skin-side down and then pack the cure over the flesh. Drizzle with gin, if using and top with the 2nd fillet, flesh-side down. Roll the sandwiched fillets tightly in cling film to create a package.
- Place the fish in a shallow baking dish or shallow-sided tray and lay another tray on top. Weigh the tray down with a couple of tins or bottles and place in the fridge for at least 48 hrs or up to 4 days, turning the fish over every 12 hours or so. The longer you leave it, the more cured it will become.
- To make the sauce, tip all the sauce ingredients into a blender. Blitz until you have a thickened dressing.
- To serve, unwrap the fish and brush off the marinade with kitchen paper. Rinse it if you like. You can slice the fish classically into long thin slices, leaving the skin behind, or remove the skin it and slice it straight down. Serve the sliced fish on a large platter or individual plates with pumpernickel bread, dill and mustard sauce.

Steps:
- Place the sugar, vodka, 3 heaped tablespoons of salt, the orange zest and the zest from 1 lemon into a bowl. Pick the dill leaves and reserve in a bowl of cold water in the fridge, then finely chop the stalks and stir into the mixture so well combined. Pop the salmon fillets into the bowl, turning them over in the marinade until well coated, then cover with cling film and place in the fridge for 5 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the horseradish sauce. Add the soured cream, grated horseradish and the juice from ½ a lemon to a small bowl. Mix well, season with a pinch of salt and add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, then place in the fridge until needed.
- Add the beetroot (including the juices) to a bowl with a splash of balsamic vinegar. Season well with salt, then mash with a fork to a rough paste. Have a taste and add a splash more vinegar if you think it needs it, then set aside until needed.
- After around 5 hours, remove the salmon from the bowl, then wipe off and discard any excess salt. Drain and finely chop the reserved dill leaves and rub all over the salmon. If you’re not serving straight away, sandwich the salmon together, with the skin-side outside and wrap in cling film, then return to the fridge, until needed.
- To serve, remove the cling film and peel away the salmon skin, then transfer to a board and finely slice. Snip over the cress, then serve alongside the horseradish sauce, balsamic beets, rye bread and lemon wedges for squeezing over. I sometimes like to serve it with a shot of vodka on the side too. Enjoy!

- Peel and trim the beets and place in a food processor with the salt, sugar, vodka and dill.
- Finely grate in the lemon zest, add the horseradish, finely grating it if fresh, then blitz until combined.
- Rub a little mixture on to the salmon skin, then place the salmon on a large tray, skin side down, and pat the remaining mixture all over it so that the flesh is completely covered.
- Cover the tray tightly with clingfilm. Pop a weight on top to help pack everything down evenly, then put the whole thing into the fridge for 36 hours. Please use your instincts here – if you have a particularly chunky side of salmon you may want to leave it for up to 48 hours to allow for proper penetration.
- Once cured, unwrap the fish, then, holding the fillet in place, pour the juices down the sink and rub away all the salty topping (it’s messy, so you might want to wear gloves).
- Pat the fillet dry with kitchen paper, then tightly wrap in clingfilm (sometimes I like to cover the salmon with freshly picked dill before wrapping, for bonus flavour). Put back into the fridge until needed, where it will keep happily for up to 2 weeks.
- To serve, use a long sharp knife to slice the salmon thinly at an angle and, as the knife touches the skin each time, kink it off, lifting away the salmon.
- Arrange the slices on a board or platter as you go. Delicious with a simple salad and good wholemeal sourdough, as part of a seafood platter, served up at a party or even as part of a festive brekkie spread.

- Heat the broiler. Rub the salmon on both sides with the oil. Put the pieces in a broiler pan or on a baking sheet, skin-side down, about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon dill, and the pepper. Broil the fish until golden brown and just barely done (the fish should still be translucent in the center), about 6 minutes for a 1-inch-thick fillet. Serve the salmon with the sauce alongside.

Run your clean fingers over the salmon and, using a pair of tweezers, remove any protruding bones. Dip the tweezers into a small bowl of water to get the bones off. Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel.
Line a large tray with a double layer of plastic wrap, making sure there is enough overhang on the two long sides to easily wrap back over to cover the salmon. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the plastic.
Combine the salt, pepper, sugar and fennel seeds in a bowl. Massage the mixture into the salmon flesh. Make sure the whole surface of the flesh is covered by the mixture, then cover tightly with the plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for 48 hours, turning over every 12 hours.
To serve, remove the salmon from the plastic wrap and drain any liquid away. Brush off the curing mixture and give the fish a quick rinse to remove the salt. Pat dry with a paper towel, sprinkle the chopped dill over the flesh and give it a gentle pat to help it stick.
Starting at the head end of the fish, cut the salmon into 2mm slices, cutting straight down not on an angle.
The gravlax will last for two weeks in the fridge, but I recommend finishing it in a week as the flavour will be better.
Serving suggestion: Make an avocado puree, smear it onto a serving plate, then lay slices of salmon over it. Top with freshly ground black pepper, snipped mustard cress, watercress leaves and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
FRANK'S TIP
When working with seafood you plan to cure or eat raw, take extra care with the cleanliness of the equipment you use.
