    1 tsp sugar

    Method

    1. Preheat oven to 180ºC, gas mark 4. Make the first marinade by crushing the garlic and ginger with the vegetable oil in a small food processor or pestle and mortar to form a smooth paste. Add the lime zest and juice and the salt. Add the salmon cubes, making sure they’re well coated, and set aside for 5-10 minutes.

    2. For the second marinade, blitz the spinach and herbs with the chillies, lime juice and vegetable oil until smooth. Pour into a bowl and stir in the yogurt, gram flour and salt. Add the garlic and ginger-marinated salmon cubes.

    3. Place the salmon on a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes, then flash under a hot grill for a further 2-3 minutes. Serve warm or chill in the fridge until required.

    4. To serve, slice the shallot into rings and mix with the beetroot liquid and sugar, and leave for 5 minutes to colour. Serve each cube of salmon garnished with a few shallot rings and a coriander leaf, with lime wedges and cocktail sticks on the side.
