    I made it with tarragon and it was very tasty and simple to do. I cooked it for the full 15 minutes and it was slightly overcooked for my taste so will do it just for 10 minutes next time.

    This recipe is made in a flash. I was out of white wine but used some lemon juice and baked it for about 10 mins and the fish was very tasty and tender. I spooned the juice which came out of the fish over the boiled potatoes. Even my kids enjoyed it. Will definately do it again! An excellent dish even for a special occasion as you can never go wrong.

    Could not really taste the wine. Will stick to just butter and dill in future.

    The dill butter was so lovely with the salmon and a great hit with all the family including hubby who usually turns his nose up at salmon!
