Wash and pat the fish dry. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and place the salmon on it. Make several shallow cuts about 3 cm deep in the flesh. Slice one orange and one lemon into wedges and fill the belly of the fish with them. Thinly slice the second lemon and insert slices into the cuts in the flesh. Drizzle vinegar over the fish and lightly salt. Wrap tightly with foil, sealing well. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (fan) for about 30 minutes. Open the foil and bake another 15 minutes until golden brown.
