Saltbush salmon with finger lime salad

Instructions

1. To make the salad dressing, remove the pearls from the finger limes by gently applying pressure to the halved finger limes until all the pearls have been harvested and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil and half the lemon juice with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and taste for seasoning, adding extra lemon juice if you like. Stir through the finger lime pearls and set aside.
2. Heat the oil for the salmon in a large frying pan over high heat. When hot, place the salmon fillets, skin-side down in the pan and top with lemon slices and sprinkle with the ground saltbush. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the skin is crisp. Turn the fillets and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, before removing from the heat and allow the fish to rest.
3. Just before serving, add the baby spinach leaves, sliced onion, roasted pumpkin and toasted pine nuts to the bowl with the salad dressing. Toss gently to combine, then divide between plates. Serve the salad with the saltbush salmon.
