Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces couscous (230g)
2 (7 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on, scaled and pinboned (each ca 7oz/200g)
olive oil
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
16 asparagus spears
1 -2 red chile, deseeded and finely chopped
4 ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 lemon, juice of
2 small courgettes, sliced into batons
1/4 cup fresh coriander, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Put your couscous in a bowl, then pour over just enough water to cover it.
  • Set aside for 3 minutes to allow the couscous to soak up the water.
  • Slice the salmon widthways into finger-size or twofinger-size strips (I've made 3 out of each fillet), drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan and add the courgettes, asparagus tips and chilli. The vegetables will need 2-5 minutes, depending on their size and on your taste.
  • Heat another non-stick frying pan and add the salmon strips (non-skin side first). They will need one minute on each side.
  • Mix the tomatoes, lemon juice, 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and the coriander into the couscous and season to taste.
  • Add the couscous to the veggies in the pan and mix.
  • Put the salmon strips on top of the couscous, place a lid on and put back on a high heat for a minute.
  • Serve:.
  • Slide everything on to plates and spoon over some sour cream.
