Ingredients

  • 200g baby/new potato
  • 100g Green Beans
  • 6-8 Tomatoes
  • 1 bag of mixed lettuce leaves
  • 2-3 spring onions

1/ Cut your potatoes into 1inch thick slices and place in a steamer, cook for 10 minutes and now add the green beans, cook for another 6-8 minutes until potatoes are tender, once cooked, drain the water in the base of the pan and place the potatoes and green beans back in with the lid firmly in place, this will keep them warm while you build the rest of this salad.

2/ Cut your tomatoes in half and place on a lined baking sheet, I de core mine but I do not remove the seeds, sprinkle with salt, sugar, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil (use no more than 1/2 a tbs for all the tomatoes) Cook on a low heat for 10-15 minutes

3/ Place your salmon either in a steamer for 10 minutes or in vegetable stock for for 10 minutes.

4/ Cut your cucumber and spring onions into bit size slices.

5/ Mix the remaining olive oil, pepper, salt, honey, mustard and lemon juice together, add to the warm  potatoes and green bean, re place the lid for a few moments, add the warm tomatoes, flake the salmon, add the salad leaves, spring onions and cucumber and serve a big pile of this either on its own or with some crusty breads.

Top Tip: If you do not like salmon use any other meat , fish or opt for tofu of some squash to make this a veggie salad, this works incredible well with grilled peppers and feta cheese.
