How to cook deliciously - Green salmon with pineapple & tamarind salad
1. Stage
Heat a pan with the oil and wilt the spinach and coriander leaves. Put in a food processor and blend with the remaining marinade ingredients until you have a smooth paste. Season well.
2. Stage
Place the salmon, skin-side up, on a board. Score the skin deeply and pour over the paste, massaging it all over the skin and flesh. Put aside while you heat the oven, or leave to marinate in the fridge for longer, if you prefer.
3. Stage
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Lift the salmon from the paste, being careful not to brush too much off. Lay the salmon on a baking sheet, skin-side down, and roast for 10-15 mins. Meanwhile, make the pineapple salad. Crush the garlic with salt flakes and pepper in a mortar, then stir in the apple juice, tamarind, honey and oil. Pour over the sliced pineapple, making sure it is evenly coated.
4. Stage
To serve, lay some pineapple slices on each plate, add a fillet of salmon to each and scatter over the red chilli, coriander, mint and crispy shallots. Serve with wedges of lime.
