Salmon Non Croute

There are a couple of steps to this recipe, but it's all pretty simple and definitely worth it! It can be cooked entirely on the hob, but typically I finish it off in the oven.

What you'll need

Enough for however many you're feeding, I cook for 2.

Main Ingredients

• Salmon fillets, 2-3
• Spinach, 2 or 3 handfuls
• Eggs, 3 whole

Fresh/ Frozen Ingredients

• Medium onion, finely chopped
• Garlic, 1-2 cloves finely chopped
• Red chilli pesto - fresh or in a jar, 3 or 4 tbsp
• Herbs - dill or basil, fresh or dried

Storecupboard

• Salt & pepper, to taste

What to do

1. Gently fry the onion in 1-2 tbsps of olive oil. Add the spinach and heat through until wilted. Mix in a clove or 2 of grated or finely chopped garlic.

2. Place the onion and spinach mix into the base of an ovenproof dish, place the salmon fillets on the top and cook in a pre-heated oven for about 10 mins, 170 fan.

3. Meanwhile mix 3 eggs, 2-3 tbsps of red pesto, a handful of fresh herbs if using, and some salt and pepper. I also threw in a cup of frozen peas but you don't have to.

4. After 10 mins, remove the salmon from the oven and pour over the eggy mixture. Pop back into the oven for a further 8-10 mins or until the salmon and eggs are cooked through.

5. Allow to rest, it may rise a little during the cooking process. Serve with your favourite buttered greens or a fresh crunchy salad dressed with olive oil and a good squeeze of lemon!
