Cooking steps

Roast the Root Veg
1
  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Trim the carrot and parsnip, then quarter lengthways (no need to peel). Chop widthways into small pieces.
  • Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
  • On a large (lined) baking tray, toss the veg with saltpepper and a drizzle of oil. Spread out in a single layer.
  • Roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Assemble the Salad
2
  • Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 
  • Trim the cucumber and slice widthways into rounds.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Combine the cucumber, yoghurt, parsley and garlic in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Quarter the lemon
Fry the Fish
3
  • When the veg has 10 mins left to cook, place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Pat the salmon dry with kitchen paper. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the salmon to the pan, skin-side down. Cook for 4-5 mins and turn over.
  • Add stock, 1 tbsp butter (per 2P), 100ml water (per 2P) and a generous squeeze of lemon.
  • Fry until the fish is cooked through, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish. Fish is cooked when opaque in the centre.

4
  • Divide salmon, roast veg and creamy cucumber between plates.
  • Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top. 
  • Serve any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
