Recipe - How to make steamed salmon using tin foil in an oven



Unroll some tin foil and place it shiny side down on top of a flat oven tray.

Place a square/rectangle of greased proof paper in the center of the foil.

If there is no grease proof paper at hand the fish can be cooked in the foil alone.



Place salmon fillets in the center of the grease proof paper with a small gap between each fish.


Sprinkle with salt and black pepper and if using the dill sprinkle with dill.
A fresh sprig of dill can also be placed on top of the fish to infuse the salmon instead of using dried dill.



Pull the tin foil up at both ends and fold to seal the foil.

Make sure that there is space inside the foil for the hot air to steam the fish, almost like a foil bag.

If the foil is wrapped to tightly there will be no room for the hot air to steam the fish nicely.




Bake in an oven at gas mark 6-7 for 20 minutes or until cooked.



Serve with blanched green kale leaves and garlic potatoes or side dish of your choice.
