Method:

Pre-heat your oven to 170 degrees or gas mark 5, slice your sweet potato (leaving the skin on) into chunky chips, place on a baking tray before baking for 11 minutes. While the potatoes are on, finely chop the dill and parsley, take the salmon with skin on and check for any bones and remove where necessary. Season the fish with Himalayan rock salt and herbs. Bring a pot of water to boil, ready for the crunchy tenderstem! Add 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to the pan and bring to heat, add your deliciously seasoned salmon fillet skin down first to the pan, watch the side of the fillet and allow for the vibrant pink to soften to the middle of the fillet, flip and finish. Your broccoli should be ready just as the salmon cooks through. Plate the food and garnish with fresh lemon juice.
