- Add the rest of the mixture over the top of the fillets and make sure that they are completely covered.
- Wrap tightly in cling film and place them into the fridge (on a plate just to be safe)
- After 48 hours, remove from the fridge and wash off the curing mixture and pat dry.
- Slice into the desired thickness and serve.
