Spring Salmon


I was in London last Monday and went to Designers Guild and Chelsea Design Center for the Chelsea Designers Week. I had lunch at a local Gastro Pub, Lots Road, and got inspired to do this simple dish at home!
A success with my family, and it was so easy to make!

GRILLED SALMON WITH SMASHED POTATOES, WILTED SPINACH AND HORSERADISH MAYO

serves 4

4 salmon fillets
250 g fresh baby spinach leaves, wilted in a tablespoon of water and a blob of butter
1 kg freshly boiled new potatoes
butter
1 tablespoon horse radish sauce mixed with
2 tablespoons of light mayonnaise

Grill the salmon,
preferably in a grill pan, with at light drizzle of olive oil, , freshly grated black pepper and sea salt. Approximately 4-5 minutes each side. Smash the potatoes ruffly with a fork and add a blob of butter. Put the spinach on top of the potatoes and then the grilled salmon. Put a generous blob of horseradish mayo on top. Serve immediately! Why not serve with a glass of New Zeeland Sauvignon Blanc!
