Ingredients
  • 12 (about 650g) baby coliban (chat) potatoes, unpeeled
  • 300g green beans, topped
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 x 280g pkt Tassal Twice-a-week Atlantic Salmon Fillets

  • 1/3 cup fresh dill sprigs

Method
  • Cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water for 12 minutes or until just tender. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a clean work surface. Halve.
  • Add the beans to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes or until bright green and tender crisp. Refresh under cold running water. Drain.

  • Cook the salmon in the microwave following packet directions. Flake into large pieces.
  • Whisk together the oil, lemon juice and mustard in a jug. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the potato, beans, egg, salmon, baby mesclun, tomato, dill and olives evenly among serving bowls. Drizzle over the dressing to serve.
