    Skewers

    1 Thread the salmon and tomatoes alternately onto the skewers, allowing 3 pieces of salmon and 4 cherry tomatoes for each skewer. You should end up with roughly 3 skewers per person. Of course, if you are serving other varieties of kebab then they'll go a lot further.

    2 Spray with oil and cook on a medium barbecue, turning gently until just cooked through: about 5 minutes. Serve with a spoonful of creamy salsa verde.

    Salsa verde

    3 Very finely chop or process all ingredients except for the yoghurt. Adjust the consistency by adding a drizzle more oil if very thick. Taste and add more lemon juice if needed. Fold into the yoghurt and serve with cooked salmon or other barbecued foods.

    4 Try salsa verde as an alternative to mayonnaise or hollandaise sauce or as an accompaniment to roasted meats and roasted vegetables.

    HFG tip

    I alternate salmon chunks with cherry tomatoes as both cook quickly. Salmon is also very rich (and pricey) so I allow around 85g per serve and cut the salmon into cubes the same size as the tomatoes.
