Ingredients

  • 600g new potatoes, larger ones halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 200g young leaf spinach, washed
  • 1 x 240g pack responsibly sourced Scottish salmon fillets by Sainsbury’s
For the sauce
  • 100ml crème fraîche
  • 2 tsp capers, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, washed
  • 2-3 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice

Step by step

  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas 5. Put the potatoes in a large pan of cold water. Cover, bring to the boil and cook for 10 minutes until just tender. Drain and tip into a roasting tin. Drizzle with the oil, add the lemon zest and dill, and season to taste. Roast for 15 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, put the spinach in a large 
frying pan, add a splash of water and cook for 
2 minutes until wilted. Tip into a colander and squeeze out any excess liquid. Scatter over the potatoes in the roasting tin and toss to combine. 
  3. Put the salmon fillets on top of the potatoes and season to taste. Return the tin to the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily. 
  4. To make the sauce, whisk together all the ingredients and season to taste.

  5. To serve, divide the potato and spinach mixture between shallow bowls, top with 
the salmon and spoon over the sauce. Serve some steamed Tenderstem broccoli and 
green beans on the side.
