Total Time:

Ingredients:
  • 2 bunches (5 in each bunch) small ripe trussed tomatoes (vine still attached)
  • 1 bunch (about 180g) asparagus, ends trimmed
  • Canola oil cooking spray, to grease
  • 2 (about 125g each) salmon fillets
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to serve
  • 2 x 300g cans butter beans, rinsed, drained
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) chicken style liquid stock
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 9.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
Instructions:
  • For a flavorful garlic bean puree, combine beans, stock, garlic, lemon rind, and olive oil in a saucepan. Boil over medium-high heat, then simmer covered until beans are very soft, about 10 minutes. Let it cool for 5 minutes. Blend the mixture in a food processor until smooth. Keep warm by covering with foil before serving.
  • Preheat grill to high. Arrange tomatoes on a non-stick baking tray and grill 6cm from heat for 10 minutes until tender.
  • Cook the asparagus in a large saucepan of boiling salted water for 3 minutes or until bright green and tender crisp.
  • Begin by gently spraying a medium non-stick frying pan with canola oil cooking spray and heating it over medium-high heat. Proceed by adding the salmon and cooking each side for 2-3 minutes for a medium rare result, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  • To plate, arrange asparagus, a spoonful of bean puree, grilled salmon, and tomatoes. Finish with a sprinkle of pepper and serve promptly.
