Ingredients:
  • 1 bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed, cut into 4cm lengths diagonally
  • 4 (about 150g each) skinless salmon fillets
  • Olive oil spray
  • 500.00 ml picked watercress sprigs (or baby rocket)
  • 1 x 250g punnet cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, peeled, halved, sliced diagonally
  • 125g (1/2 cup) low-fat natural yoghurt
  • 2 tsp baby salted capers, rinsed, finely chopped
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh tarragon
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh chives
Instructions:
  • Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for 2 minutes until vibrant green and crisp-tender. Then, shock in cold water and drain well.
  • Create a delightful dressing by mixing yoghurt, capers, tarragon, and chives in a small bowl. Finish with a touch of freshly ground pepper to elevate the flavors.
  • Preheat a large frying pan over high heat. Lightly coat the salmon with oil spray, then place it in the pan. Cook for 2 minutes on each side for a medium doneness, or adjust cooking time to your preference.
  • Combine asparagus, watercress, tomato, and cucumber in a large bowl. Portion the salad onto plates, then add salmon on top and finish with a drizzle of dressing before serving.
