Baked salmon salad with grainy mustard dressing
A simple salad with textures and flavours galore. Think buttery flaky salmon, firm juicy tomatoes, raw slithers of courgette, creamy exotic avocado, spicy round chives, nutty crunchy seeds and fresh papery leaves. So delicious!
Method
Pre-heat the oven to 180/350/gas 4. Place the salmon fillets in an oven-proof dish and season well with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until they are firm to the touch.
Assemble your salad ingredients and flake the salmon over the top leaving the cooked skin behind.
To make the dressing, place all of the ingredients into a jam jar and screw the lid on. Shake well until it all emulsifies (comes together) and dress your salad.
Enjoy on it’s own or with some lightly toasted DizzleSky loaf or sourdough.
