Grilled Salmon with Spiced Carrot and Sweet Potato Mash

This is a great way to include oily fish into your diet. Salmon is high in Omega 3 fats, which are essential for brain health and helping to improve mood.

Ingredients:

2 large carrots, sliced

1 large sweet potato, sliced

200g green beans, trimmed

½ sweetheart cabbage, chopped

½ bag kale, destalked and roughly chopped

4 salmon fillets

½ tsp mixed spice

Sea salt & black pepper

Lemon wedges, to serve

Method:

• Steam the carrots and sweet potato in a steamer basket for 10 minutes before adding the green beans, cabbage and kale on top in another basket. Cook until tender.
• Preheat the grill to high. Place the salmon fillets, skin side down on a baking tray and cook under the grill for 8-10 minutes, or until beginning to turn golden brown.
• Remove the carrots and sweet potato from the steamer and place in a large bowl. Mash with a potato masher before adding the mixed spice. Season with salt and pepper and mash again until a smooth consistency is achieved.
• Serve each salmon fillet on a bed of mash and steamed vegetables.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
• Enjoy!
