Method

  1. Heat the grill to medium hot. Put the salmon skin-side down on a non-stick baking sheet. Grill for 5 minutes until just cooked but still a little pink in the middle. Cool then discard the skin and flake the flesh with a fork. Mix with the crème fraîche, chopped dill, capers, mustard and lemon zest and juice then season well.
  2. To make the salad, slice the peeled beetroot very finely with a mandolin. Put in a small pan with the vinegar, thyme, a dash of olive oil, a pinch of sugar and salt, then cook over a very gentle heat so that the beets soften a little.
  3. Serve the rillettes at room temperature with toasted rye bread, a few salad leaves and the beetroot salad.
