Seared salmon pieces over smashed potatoes and green peas with fresh dill and lemon — Serving illustration

For 4 servings

What you’ll need

500 g salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into large cubes
600 g pre-cooked potatoes
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 lemon
1 cucumber, sliced on the side, optional
Black pepper to taste

Allergens and labels
Fish. Use plain salmon without marinades that may contain gluten or milk.

One step at a time

Let’s make it

Heat half the olive oil in a non-stick pan and cook salmon pieces for 6 to 8 minutes, turning gently until cooked through.
Meanwhile microwave or pan-heat the potatoes and peas until hot, then lightly crush with the remaining olive oil and half the dill.
Top with salmon, remaining dill and lemon. Serve cucumber on the side if desired.

Times are estimates. Use the doneness checks in the method.

Make the texture work

Keep salmon, potato and peas separate; mash peas into potato only if that texture is already accepted.

Season it properly

The listed recipe uses gentle family flavours. Keep optional pepper, lemon, herbs or fermented foods separate when that feels more comfortable.

Simple swaps

Keep a familiar food alongside the meal and serve components separately when preferred. Check every substituted packaged ingredient for gluten and casein.

Keep it safely

Cool leftovers promptly, refrigerate, and reheat once until steaming hot throughout. Follow ingredient-pack instructions and local food-safety advice.
