How to cook deliciously - Warm salad of chargrilled courgettes & salmon

1. Stage

Make the dressing. Measure the ingredients into a jug or screwtopped jar, season to taste, then whisk or shake to mix. Set aside.

2. Stage

Now mix the olive oil, lemon juice, herbs and garlic in a bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the courgette halves in this marinade until they’re thoroughly coated.

3. Stage

Heat a ridged griddle pan until very hot but not smoking, or use a good non-stick frying pan instead (but you won’t get attractive dark stripes). Sear the courgettes in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side until just softened, with dark stripes. Remove and set aside.

4. Stage

Put the strips of salmon into the remaining marinade in the dish and toss to coat, then chargrill on the griddle pan for 1-2 minutes on each side until just cooked through.

5. Stage

To serve, divide the salad leaves between two plates and lay the courgettes and salmon on top. Re-whisk the dressing and drizzle it over everything. Serve at once.
