Ingredients
  • 6 ozs fresh wild salmon fillet
  • 1 1/2 cups cauliflower florets (about 150 g)
  • 1/2 medium avocado
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • a pinch freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1

Steam cauliflower florets until very tender (8–10 minutes). Drain well.

2

Place cauliflower and minced garlic in a mortar or use a fork to mash to a coarse mash; stir in lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt and pepper. Keep warm.

3

Pat salmon dry and season with salt and pepper. In a hot nonstick skillet (no added oil), sear salmon skin-side down 4–5 minutes, flip and cook 2–3 minutes until just opaque.

4

Halve the avocado and serve half beside the salmon and cauliflower mash. Spoon any pan juices over salmon and finish with extra lemon if desired.
