Salmon Rollups With Lime Butter Sauce

This recipe is from the *Best Seafood Recipes* of the Australian Women's Weekly cookbook series. I admit to a major revision of the recipe as it was originally for crepe rollups & I was not as interested in 12 crepes & their labor-intensive prep as I was in 6 sliced rollups as a starter course w/the sauce. If you disagree, then feel free to use your favorite crepe recipe to yield 12 crepes (a top & bottom w/the salmon mixture spread in the centers ... then rolled & sliced). If you are into an easier & make-ahead fix w/the same yummy outcome, then give this version a whirl. (Time does not include chilling time) *Enjoy*
