1.5 lb salmon fillet
1 cup of seasonal fruit e.g. cherries, strawberries, mango, pineapple, cut into 1-1.5cm cubes
3 tbsp canola or olive oil
2 tbsp chopped cilantro
juice of 1 lime
2 cloves of garlic, mined
1 green onion, chopped
1/4 red onion, choppped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
sugar, salt, pepper to taste

Marinate salmon for a maximum 2 hours before cookinh.
Combine salsa ingredients and refrigerate while salmon is cooking.
Cook salmon fillet as below:
Grill -- preheat grill to medium and brush with oil. Place fillet on grill skin-side up, cover with lid. Turn half-wau through cooking.
Oven -- preheat oven to 200 degcel. Baket fillet skin-side down on baking pan.
20-25 minutes for frozen fillet. 10-15 for thawed fillet. Salmon is cooked when it appears opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve with chilled salsa on the side.
