SERVES: 2 | PREP TIME: 20 MINS | COOK TIME: 20 MINS
INGREDIENTS
250g asparagus trimmed
2 x 120g fillets salmon, skin removed
1 small clove garlic
crushed 1 lemon, zested and juice
2 tbsp butter a handful dill
chopped 1 tbsp capers
300g new potatoes
75g frozen peas
METHOD
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Cut two 20cm x 20cm squares of baking paper and put each on top of a large piece of foil. Divide the asparagus between the squares of baking paper with the salmon fillets on top and season generously. Divide the garlic, lemon zest and juice, butter, dill and capers, then gather up the sides of the parcels to seal completely. Lift onto a baking tray and put into the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through.
Meanwhile, cook the new potatoes in a large pan of lightly salted boiling water for 10 minutes until tender to the point of a knife, adding the peas to the water for the final minute of cooking, then drain well.
Serve the potatoes and peas with the salmon, asparagus, all of the buttery juices and more lemon wedges.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
• New potatoes
When ingredients are in season, they need less doing to them. Flavours are fuller. Cooking becomes more straightforward. A good cut of meat, fresh vegetables harvested at the right time and ingredients that have not travelled unnecessarily far bring enough to the plate.
