Techniques
- 2 cup water
- 2 filets filet of salmon
- ½ cup diced cucumber
- 3 tbsp freshly sliced mint
- Mediterranean couscous
- salt
Put water in a small sauce pot with a few scoops of Mediterranean couscous; stir, add a good pinch of salt, bring to a boil and cook 5 to 7 minutes until tender and fluffy.
Strain and run cold water over the couscous to cool it and stop it overcooking; put it in a small mixing bowl with a few more tablespoons of olive oil and set aside.
- fresh cracked black pepper
Take the salmon filets from the fridge, season with a little olive oil, salt and black pepper, and massage the seasoning in.
Broil at 500 degrees for 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the size of the filet.
- sliced cherry tomatoes
- fresh squeezed lemon juice
Mix a few scoops of the cooled couscous with sliced cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, a little olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt, pepper and sliced mint; stir.
Mixing the couscous salad
Place a few scoops of the couscous salad at the bottom of a shallow bowl; lift the salmon off the baking tray and set it on top.
- Italian flat leaf parsley
Garnish with sprigs of flat leaf parsley; finish with a good squeeze of lemon juice and a little olive oil.
