Instructions
- Soak the plank in water for 2 hours, drain and set aside. Put the plank on a hot barbecue grill, with the lid on. Allow to heat and char slightly for around 5 to 10 minutes.
- Set the salmon on the plank, skin side down, season well and sprinkle over the sugar. Replace the lid on the barbecue and cook for 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together all the salsa ingredients in a small bowl and serve with the cooked salmon.
