Ingredients

Mash

  • ¼ cauliflower *
  • 600g pre-diced peeled potatoes

Salmon

  • 1 pack salmon fillet
  • 2 packs sliced almonds
  • 2-3 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Greens

  • 1 broccoli
  • 1 cup frozen peas

To Serve

  • ½ lemon

Steps

  1. Make mash Cut cauliflower into small florets and cook with potatoes in first pot of boiling water for about 15 minutes or until tender. Drain and return to pot with 1 Tbsp butter and 2-3 Tbsp milk. Mash until smooth, season to taste and keep warm. Cut lemon into wedges and set aside.
  2. Prep salmon Pat salmon dry and remove any pin bones. Cut into 4 pieces, place on a lined oven tray skin side down and season with salt.
  3. Roughly chop almonds and mix with honey and lemon juice in a small bowl. Sprinkle almond mixture over salmon and set aside. Press down to help almonds stick to salmon.
  4. Cook salmon When potatoes have 5 minutes cook time remaining, bake salmon for 6-8 minutes or until just cooked. Salmon is best cooked medium. Check salmon regularly to avoid burning the almonds.
  5. Cook greens While salmon cooks, cut broccoli into small florets and cook in second pot of boiling water for 2 minutes, then add peas and cook a further 2 minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain well and return to pot with a 1 Tbsp butter. Season to taste.
