Ready Steady Cook
The fantastic feature of this trend is the heat resistance of the Olympia dining table. This takes the worry out of marking your table when you serve delicious piping hot meals for friends and family. Here’s an easy recipe below, to make this week with our step by step guide for Oriental Salmon & Tenderstem Broccoli Tray Bake …
Ingredients (to serve 4):
- 3 – 4 salmon fillets, skin off and pin-boned
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Olive oil or sesame oil
- 2 Lemons + juice ½ lemon
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 200g of tender stem broccoli
- Optional small bunch of spring onions – sliced
How to prepare this delicious meal…
- Heat oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan/gas 4.
- Dress each of the salmon fillets with a light coating of olive oil or sesame oil and freshly ground black pepper.
- Put the salmon in a large roasting tin/ceramic dish, leaving space between each fillet.
- Wash and drain the tender stem broccoli and, while still a little wet, arrange in the tray around the fillets. Pour the lemon juice over everything, then add the lemon quarters.
- (Optional) Top with half the spring onions, drizzle with a little olive oil and put in the oven for 14 mins. Remove from the oven, sprinkle everything with the soy sauce, then return to the oven for 4 mins more until the salmon is cooked through. (Optional) Sprinkle with the remaining spring onions just before serving.
Serve with a side of spring greens or rice noodles if you fancy something more substantial.
