    1. Remove the middle bone from each salmon steak, to make two strips from each steak.
    2. Remove the skin. Slice into pieces, cutting diagonally.
    3. Roughly crush the star anise in a mortar with a pestle. Place the salmon in a non-metallic dish and add the star anise, lemon grass, lime juice and rind and honey. Sesaon well with salt and pepper. Turn the salmon strips to coat. Cover and leave in the refrigerator to marinate overnight.
