Method

Arrange the salmon in a large shallow dish. Mix the water with 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice, season with salt, then pour over the fish.

Cover with greaseproof paper and cook on HIGH for 6 minutes. Set aside while making the sauce.

Place the egg yolks in a blender or food processor and blend for 30 seconds. Place the butter in a dish and microwave on HIGH for 1 minute, then add the remaining lemon juice.

With the motor running, pour the butter in a steady stream onto the egg yolks until combined. Pour into a bowl and stir in the chopped dill and salt and pepper.

Arrange the salmon on a warmed serving plate and spoon a little of the sauce over each portion. Garnish each with a sprig of dill.
