Sophia Lindop’s Seared Norwegian salmon
served with fresh granadilla & mint
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
2 x 300 g salmon fillets, skin on
Salt to season
Pulp of 4 granadillas
A bunch of mint, finely chopped
Method
Heat the oil in a fish pan until the pan is very hot. Place the fillets of salmon in the pan, flesh side down, and sear for a few minutes before turning them onto the skin. Cook for a few minutes more, about 7 minutes in total, season with salt and remove from the heat.
Scrape the pulp from the granadillas onto the salmon and top with the mint.
Serve warm or at room temperature with a steamed potato and avocado pear or for a carb free option, just with a fresh, green salad.
