In a heavy bottomed pan or glass dish put a sliced lemon, some dill
sprigs and put your salmon on top of that.
Pour over a little white wine and add water to just cover the fish.
Cover tightly with foil and poke a few holes in the top to let steam
escape.
Bake in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes or till the fish flakes
easily.

easy peasey.
