Bright Pink Salmon Gravlax is easier to make than you think! Only 5 minutes of prep time with a few days in the fridge to cure. Made with beets, salt, dill, juniper berries and vodka. Cured Salmon also known as Beetroot Gravadlax, is an amazing appetizer or perfect for breakfast with bagels and cream cheese.

Salmon Gravlax with Beets

lbs/ 1kg boneless salmon fillet

beets (grated)

dill (chopped)

juniper berries

black peppercorns

salt

sugar

vodka

In a pestle and mortar, smash the juniper berries and peppercorns until it resembles a coarse ground pepper.

In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together. Wear gloves so your fingers aren't purple from the beets.

Spread a small amount of the beet mixture in a glass pan. Place the salmon (skin side down) on the beets. Cover the salmon with the rest of the beet mix. Use less beets on the tail side and more beets on the thicker portions.

Cover the beet covered salmon with cling wrap. Place a heavy object on top of the salmon, to weigh it down. (ie. a baking tray with cans on it, or anything with weight).

Refrigerate the salmon for 2-3 days until the salmon cures and is firm. Scrape off the beet mixture off the cured salmon. Rinse off under water before wiping with paper towels.

Slice the Salmon Gravlax thinly to serve. Should last 4 days in the fridge when tightly wrapped in cling wrap.
