DESCRIPTION:

Ultimate creativity with a Sweet Potato here! A Sag Aloo is a popular Indian cuisine side dish, but here we made it centre stage, by using a big portion of Sweet Potato, Spinach and adding in soft Goats Cheese. Combine that with salmon fillets, Mushrooms and Tenderstem Broccoli and you have such a satisfying meal full of flavour explosions and character.

You can reduce the calories by 451 if you drop the Sweet Potato down to 250g, halve the butter and have a single salmon fillet.

INGREDIENTS:

• Wild-caught Salmon – 2x (without skin) / 200g
• Sweet Potato – 400g
