Try this delicious crispy salmon and asparagus dish for a healthy family meal.
Ingredients:
  • 4 x 200g salmon fillets, skin on
  • 2 bunches asparagus, woody ends trimmed
  • 25g butter
  • 1/2 lemon, rind finely grated, juiced
  • Chopped flat-leaf parsley, to serve
  • Lemon zest, to serve
  • 40.00 ml drained baby capers
  • 4 slices day-old sourdough bread*
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 long red chilli, seeded, finely chopped
  • 60ml olive oil
  • 62.50 ml finely chopped tarragon
  • 62.50 ml finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1/2 shallot, finely chopped
  • 80ml olive oil
  • 11.80 gm Dijon mustard
  • 5.30 gm lemon juice
  • Pinch of caster sugar
Instructions:
  • Dry capers with paper towel, then finely chop them. Remove and discard crusts from bread, coarsely chop the remaining bread, and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. Cook the crumbs in a frying pan over medium heat until pale golden and crisp, stirring often for about 5 minutes. Stir in capers. Add garlic, chili, and oil, and cook for another 5 minutes until chili and garlic are soft, and crumbs are dark golden and crisp. Finally, add tarragon and parsley, season, and enjoy the poor man’s parmesan.
  • Combine shallot, oil, vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, and sugar in a food processor. Pulse until smooth and thoroughly mixed. Season to taste.
  • Preheat oven to 180°C. Heat a greased large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Season salmon with salt. Place salmon in the pan, skin-side down, and sear for 3 mins until skin is crispy. Transfer pan to oven and bake for 6 mins until salmon is cooked as desired.
  • While the asparagus is cooking, melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat, and mix in the lemon rind and lemon juice. Add the cooked asparagus and toss together.
  • Coat salmon with grated Parmesan. Serve alongside asparagus with tangy lemon dressing, fresh parsley, and lemon zest.
