Friday dinner when you need something quick

Heat the frying fat in a large pan, add the frozen salmon fillets, and reduce the heat to medium. Fry slowly until crispy, turning the salmon only once. Prepare the mashed potatoes (you can certainly make them yourself if you’re in a hurry, but I use the packet) according to the package instructions, adding a knob of butter if desired and seasoning with herbs. Now tear the lettuce leaves (cleaned and washed) into bite-sized pieces. Cut the bell peppers into strips, slice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and remove the stems. Divide the salad among 3 salad plates. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and divide into 12 pieces. Place 4 pieces of salmon on each of 3 plates and sprinkle with herbs. Place the mashed potatoes in dumplings on the plates (or pipe them on using a piping bag). Place a lemon slice decoratively on each plate. Sprinkle the plate all over with pepper or herbs. Drizzle the salad with dressing and serve.
