400 g
potatoes
1
zucchini
1 bunch
mint
2 fillet
salmon
(Contains Fish; May be present: Crustacean, Mollusc. )
1 tsp
white wine vinegar
½ tsp
sugar
2 tbs
olive oil
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. To prepare your ingredients, halve potatoes, peel zucchini into ribbons and finely chop the mint.
Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil over a medium-high heat and cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain really well and then absorb any excess moisture on a paper towel lined plate. Using the side of a chef’s knife slightly flatten potato pieces to roughen up the edges. Set aside.
Meanwhile, to make the zucchini salsa, place the zucchini ribbons in a medium bowl and add the white wine vinegar, mint, white sugar and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss well and set aside.
Heat a greased medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets on both sides with salt and pepper and then add them to the frying pan and cook for 1 minute on each side. Transfer the salmon to the prepared oven tray and cook in the oven for 7-8 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
Meanwhile, wipe the same medium frying pan clean with paper towel and heat the olive oil over a medium-high heat. Carefully add the smashed potatoes and cook for 5 minutes tossing the potatoes occasionally until golden and crispy. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from the frying pan and drain on paper towel.
To serve, divide the smashed potatoes and salmon fillets between plates. Top the salmon fillets with the zucchini ribbon salsa.
