Any benefit!

Cooking for the coronation!
Good afternoon. I am organising a fund raising King’s Coronation lunch for our Church. We are serving 5oz salmon fillets and there will be between 60/80 fillets. Please can you advise the best way to cook them. We are serving them cold with hot new potatoes, please could you also recommend a sauce and salad that would be cheap and easy to serve. Thank you very much, Amanda
