Method

  1. Step 1

    Combine oil, harissa paste, garlic and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Season. Add salmon, stir to coat and set aside for 20 mins to develop the flavours.

  2. Step 2

    To make the tahini sauce, combine the tahini, yoghurt, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl. Add 1/3 cup (80ml) hot water and stir until smooth. Season.

  3. Step 3

    Thread the salmon mixture and lemon slices, folded, onto metal or soaked bamboo skewers. Heat a barbecue grill or chargrill on medium-high. Spray salmon skewers with olive oil spray. Cook, turning occasionally, for 4 mins or until lightly charred and just cooked through.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer skewers to a serving platter. Sprinkle with sumac and mint. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and tahini sauce.
