Flaked Salmon Salad With Honey Dressing Food

SEARED SALMON WITH HEATHER HONEY DRESSING

Steps:

• The day before, heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan, then cook the salmon, skinned side down, for 12-15 minutes, turning half way through. It should be cooked all the way through and opaque in the centre.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing. Put olive oil, mustard, honey, mayonnaise and vinegar with some salt and pepper into a blender and whizz until well combined, then set aside.
• Peel and segment the oranges and remove any pith (work over a plate so you can catch all the juices). Cover the oranges and keep in a cool place. Stir the orange juice into the dressing and store it in a screw top jar. Slice the onions, put into a plastic bag and store in the fridge.
• Flake the salmon into large pieces using two forks to tease the flesh apart, then spoon over half the dressing. Cover and chill.
• When ready to serve, shake the dressing, put the sliced onion, prawns and orange segments in a large bowl and drizzle over the remaining dressing. Add the salad leaves and toss together lightly. Using your hands, gently lift the mixture on to a large platter and scatter over the salmon flakes. Season with some coarsely ground black pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Steam the potatoes and beans in a steamer basket set over a pan of boiling water for 8 mins. Arrange the salmon fillets on top and steam for a further 6-8 mins, or until the salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork.
• Meanwhile, mix the dressing ingredients together along with the clementine juice. If eating straightaway, divide the salad leaves between two plates and top with the warm potatoes and beans and the clementine slices. Arrange the salmon fillets on top, scatter over the herbs and spoon over the dressing. If taking to work, prepare the potatoes, beans and salmon the night before, then pack into a rigid airtight container with the salad leaves kept separate. Put the salad elements together and dress just before eating to prevent the leaves from wilting.
