Ingredients

1½ kg Side of Salmon, skin on
1 tbsp Olive Oil, plus a little extra for brushing
1 x 4cm piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 cloves Garlic, peeled
1 tbsp Wholegrain Mustard
1 generous tsp Runny Honey
Sea Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper
1 Lemon, cut into wedges

Method
Heat the oven to 200°C (Gas Mark 6) and line a large roasting tray with foil (this will help prevent the salmon from sticking to the tin during cooking). Brush the skin of the salmon lightly with oil, then put the fish skin-side down on the foil-lined tray.In a small jug or mixing bowl, beat together the ginger, mustard, honey and tablespoon of olive oil. Crush in the garlic cloves and season to taste with salt and pepper, then beat again until well combined. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread the mixture evenly over the surface of the salmon, then put the tray into the hot oven for 20 minutes.
