Tonight I shall write two short blogs, on a very delicious but super simple 2 course meal. The first shall focus on the main- salmon and roasted veg.
This is a very typical dinner dish for us, it's easy, healthy and relatively quick however salmon can sometimes just be plain boring and tonight I fancied a change. So, I blitzed 1 slice of seeded batch bread in a blender and added around 20g of grated parmesan and 3 teaspoons of pesto in order to make a slightly moist breadcrumb mix. This tops the salmon fillets before heading into the oven for 20 minutes at 180 degrees.
To join the salmon I laced a baking tray with olive oil, salt and pepper then chopped white onion, yellow pepper, carrot, courgette and garlic - tossing them in the oil mix before heading onto a lower shelf for a similar time frame. You can pick any veg you like however this colour mix felt quite 'autumnal' and suits the weather we are having at the moment.
To serve, I placed the steaming hot salmon onto a bed of veg. The pesto and parmesan crust really complimented the garlicy veg but did not over power the gentle taste of the fish. This is definitely one to be played around with- I hope you find your own perfect combination and enjoy!
