Ingredients (serves 2)
- Salmon (raw)250 g
- Sweet potatoes400 g
- Green beans (frozen)250 g
- Olive oil10 g
- Lemon40 g
Also: Garlic, smoked paprika, dill, salt, pepper
Method
- Turn the oven on to 200 °C to heat up (about 10 min). Wash the sweet potatoes (400 g) and cut them into 2 cm wedges. Crush 1 garlic clove and chop the dill.
- Toss the potatoes with half the oil (5 g), smoked paprika and a little salt, and spread them on a tray. Roast at 200 °C for 10 min.
- Meanwhile, pat the salmon (250 g) dry and season with the garlic, pepper and a pinch of salt. Halve the lemon: squeeze one half and cut the other into wedges.
- Push the potatoes to one side and add the salmon and frozen green beans (250 g). Drizzle with the remaining oil (5 g) and the lemon juice.
- Roast at 200 °C for another 15–18 min, until the potatoes are soft and the beans are hot.
- Check the salmon: it should be opaque all the way through and flake easily with a fork. If it's still translucent in the middle, roast at 200 °C for another 3 min.
- Sprinkle with dill and serve with the lemon wedges.
Tips
- Put the sweet potatoes in the oven 10 min earlier – they take longer than the fish.
- Salmon is done when it flakes easily into layers with a fork.
- Want it hotter? Chilli flakes over the salmon and potatoes.
- Cheaper? Mackerel instead of salmon.
