The story behind this recipe
Today is Monday, I don't really feel like doing much, but I want to eat something good—something I haven't tried cooking before, but something I'm sure will turn out delicious.
After all, you can't go wrong with fish and vegetables.
First of all, we clean the asparagus as shown in the pictures below:
We bring water and salt to a boil, enough to reach halfway up the asparagus stalks.
While the water starts to boil, we take care of the fish.
I portioned the salmon fillet into 200 g pieces, and I seasoned and brushed each piece with a little melted butter (olive oil is also fine).
We coat it in the Alevia "Omega mix" seed blend (you can find their products here), and leave it in the oven for 12 minutes at 180 degrees.
While the salmon is baking, we cook the asparagus.
We place it upright in the boiling water and cover the pot with a lid. (It is ideal to boil it in a tall pot.)
We leave it for 2 minutes over medium heat, after which we sauté it in a pan with a teaspoon of butter, 2 crushed garlic cloves, and freshly ground pepper.
We leave it on the heat for another 3 minutes, then set it aside.
That's all! Enjoy your dinner!
