Tips
If you don't want to make your own coriander pesto purchase some from the chiled section in the supermarket.
Pesto darkens in the fridge but will freeze well. Put excess into a small airtight container and freeze for up to a month.
If you like remove the salmon skin after grilling and place back in the oven and fan grill at 200°C until crispy.
