Method

  • step 1

    Put the potato wedges into a shallow microwave-proof baking dish, then cook on High for 10 mins until almost tender all the way through (turn the wedges halfway through to ensure even cooking). Add the broccoli, re-cover and cook for another 3 mins or until the florets just give with a knife. If you don’t have a microwave, boil instead.

  • step 2

    Heat grill to medium. Mix the crème fraîche and mustard together with a little seasoning. Nestle the salmon in among the potatoes and broccoli, then spoon over the crème fraîche mix, making sure most of the broccoli is covered with sauce. Sprinkle with the cheese and grill for 5 mins until the sauce is bubbling, the tips of the potatoes are golden and the salmon is just cooked.

RECIPE TIPS
BUYING SALMON FILLETS

Salmon sold in packs normally has the skin still on. Buy it from the fish counter instead, and ask them to remove the skin, saving you the hassle when you get home. Make sure it is from a sustainable source.

Step one. Destroy everything in a microwave. Step 2. Bung it all in the oven to become mush. Step 3. Cover with cheese creme and mustard. I took some initiative. Try crisping the wedges in the oven. Dont microwave them first. Boil. Season and splash of oil when in the oven. Gives some more crunch…

First off, who on this earth cooks salmon in the microwave??? I mean, we're not animals, right? So people, use the oven too cook this, that's just common sense. Also, either you're going to have to put the potatoes in the oven for about 40 min for them to be well done, or just pre-boil them and…
