Quick, easy and oh so satisfying is what a fish dinner is all about!
Salmon is a great source of essential omega 3 fatty acids that can be found in our diet and one of my favourite fishes. This recipe will work well with any meaty fish like cod, hake, pollock, haddock or monkfish.
Mix up the herbs and topping to work with whatever you have in your fridge. Likewise use any citrus fruit to replace the lemon. If you have no yoghurt, cream cheese or even some beaten egg will work fine too.
I highly recommend some peas with mint on the side too!
