Method

  • step 1

    Set the grill to its highest setting. Put the salmon fillets flesh-side up and evenly spaced in a shallow flameproof dish. Finely grate the zest of the lime into a bowl, then squeeze in the juice and stir in the honey, mustard and a good sprinkling of salt. Pour the mixture over the salmon and grill, without turning, for 5-6 minutes until it’s golden on top and cooked through (check the centre with a fork).

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, tip the beans into a saucepan and add the butter, crème fraîche, garlic and plenty of salt and pepper. Turn the heat on to moderate and coarsely mash everything together – a wooden spoon or a masher will do the job – until hot and bubbling. This only takes a few minutes as the beans are already cooked.Tip in the rocket and stir into the mash until it’s hot and just wilted.

  • step 3

    Serve the salmon on the mash, drizzled with the cooking juices.

Lovely recipe but the salmon was nowhere near cooked through in the recommended cooking time. I had to double it! Other than that, a delicious, very quick meal.

Loved this. I thought it would divide the family but actually it was liked by everyone! We didn't have any creme fraiche so used some soft cream cheese, and no rocket so we added peas. The only change I would make would be to crisp up the skin, I get the whole flesh side up bit, but I'm not a fan…

I set the search for a salmon recipe under 250 cals per portion. This was at the top of the list...at 860 cals per portion it hardly fits the search criteria.

This was lovely and the beans worked really well. I cooked the salmon in the oven but I think I'll double the quantity of the sauce next time as I'd prefer a bit more to drizzle.
