INGREDIENTS

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons quinoa
  • ½ a head of broccoli
  • 4 x 70g slices of salmon fillet
  • 2 handfuls of rocket
  • 2 handfuls of baby spinach
  • 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, roughly chopped.
  • 120g frozen peas
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons of aioli
  • 2 tablespoons of toasted seeds
  • A hefty sprinkling of chopped mint and parsley
  • Salt and pepper

METHOD

  1. Put 80ml of water into a small pan and bring to the boil. Stir in the quinoa and boil for 5 minutes, then turn the heat down and simmer for 5 minutes more. Turn the heat off, fluff with a fork, and leave until cooled.
  2. Cut the broccoli into small florets and slice the stalks in 1cm thick circles. Drop the broccoli into a pan of boiling salted water for 3 minutes, then drain and run under the tap until cold.
  3. Season your salmon put under a hot grill or on a hot griddle pan for 3 minutes on each side.
  4. Build your salad: toss the leaves, tomatoes, broccoli and peas in the juice of half a lemon and the olive oil. Lift onto a serving dish and scatter on the cooled quinoa. Put the salmon on top and drizzle with the aioli, seeds and herbs, with the other half lemon on the side.
