Cooking Steps

1
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast freekeh, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with water, then add a good pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 30-35 minutes. • Drain and rinse.

TIP: The freekeh is cooked when it has softened but still retains some bite.

• Meanwhile, thickly slice leek. Cut white turnip into bite-sized chunks. Cut onion into wedges. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning. Toss to coat, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.

• While the veggies are roasting, pick and roughly chop mint leaves. • In a small bowl, combine Greek-style yoghurt and a pinch of salt and pepper.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides. • When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side.

TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!
