Ingredients
 

  • 1 kg Potatoes
  • 5 tbsp Melted butter or olive oil
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 Lime
  • 4 stems Mint
  • Olive oil
  • 300 g Frozen peas
  • 1 tsp Instant vegetable broth
  • Salt, pepper, sugar
  • 600 g Salmon fillets
  • Coarse sea salt
  • Lemon quarters for serving

Instructions
 

  • If you like, you can peel the potatoes, but I left the peel on. Cut deep into the potatoes with a knife, a few millimeters apart, but do not cut through. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper (with the incisions facing up) and brush with the melted butter or olive oil. I sprinkled the potatoes with some spice for french fries. Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 45 - 55 minutes at 200 degrees (or fan oven 175 degrees). Brush with butter or oil every now and then.
  • For the sauce, finely dice the onion and sweat it in a little heated olive oil in a large saucepan. Pluck the mint leaves and add with the frozen peas. Finely grate the peel of the lime and then squeeze out the juice. Add both to the peas.
  • Approx. Pour in 200 ml of water and stir in the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 5 minutes, then puree finely. Season to taste with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar.
  • Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and fry them in the hot oil in a pan for about 3 minutes on each side. Sprinkle the potatoes with sea salt and serve with the sauce and the fish.
