check things off as you go

  1. Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 180 °C (gas mark 6).

  2. Peel the potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 2 cm.

  3. Cook the potatoes

    Boil the potato cubes in the saucepan of salted water for 15 min, until tender.

    Tip · To check that the potatoes are done, poke them with a fork. They should crush slightly.

  4. Cook the green beans

    Meanwhile, cook the frozen green beans in the same pot of water for 8 min once it comes back to a boil. Then drain them in the colander.

  5. Cook the salmon

    Add the oil to the nonstick skillet and heat it over medium heat. Lay the salmon fillets skin side down and cook for 4 min without touching them. Gently flip them and cook for another 3 min. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

  6. Finish in the oven

    Spread the drained potatoes in a baking dish. Add the green beans around them. Set the salmon fillets on top. Bake for 10 min at 180 °C.

    Tip · Overcooked salmon gets dry. Stop cooking as soon as it flakes easily with a fork.

  7. Serve hot

    Take the dish out of the oven and drizzle it with a little fresh lemon juice before serving.
