  1. Combine the sugar, salt, coriander, chilli and vodka in a bowl. Place one-quarter of the sugar mixture in the base of a deep ceramic or glass dish, large enough to hold the salmon in a single layer. Place salmon in dish. Rub the remaining sugar mixture over the salmon. Cover with plastic wrap, covering the surface of the salmon. Place a plate on top, and press down with weights, such as cans. Place in the fridge, turning once, for 2 days or until the salmon is firm to the touch.

  2. Combine the extra coriander and extra chilli in a bowl. Rinse the salmon under cold running water. Pat dry with paper towel. Rub the oil over the salmon. Top with the coriander mixture and press to coat. Use a filleting knife to cut the salmon across the grain into paper-thin slices.

  3. Combine basil, mint and chives in a small bowl. Arrange the gravlax on serving plates. Place the basil mixture in the centre of each plate and drizzle over oil. Serve with lime wedges.
