One Pan Watercress Stuffed Salmon With Parmesan New Potatoes Recipes

NEW POTATOES STUFFED WITH SMOKED SALMON AND HORSERADISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut potatoes in half crosswise. Mix with oil in bowl. Place cut side down on heavy large baking sheet. Bake potatoes until just tender, about 25 minutes. Cool completely.
• Mix 3 1/2 ounces salmon, sour cream, onion, 1 teaspoon capers and horseradish in small bowl. Season with pepper. (Potatoes and salmon mixture can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
• Cut thin slice off rounded end of each potato so that potatoes will stand upright. Turn potatoes over. Using melon baller or small spoon, scoop out some of center of each potato. Spoon 1 teaspoon filling into each. Garnish each with smoked salmon and caper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)

SALMON WITH NEW POTATO & WATERCRESS SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Take a square of foil and arrange the sliced shallots in the centre. Put the fish fillets on top, add 2 sprigs of dill and ½ tbsp of the vinegar. Close the foil, sealing it to make a parcel, and place on a baking tray. Put in the oven for 12 mins.
• Steam the potatoes for 6 mins. Add the beans and cook for 5 mins more. Put the remaining vinegar in a bowl with the oil, mustard, watercress, and most of the chopped dill and shallot, and mix well. Add the warm beans and potatoes, and gently toss together. Serve with the cooked fish, pouring over the juice from the parcel, and scatter over the remaining dill.

ONE-PAN WATERCRESS-STUFFED SALMON WITH PARMESAN NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8 and line a large, shallow roasting tin with baking parchment. Tip the potatoes into a large bowl and drizzle with the olive oil, then toss well to coat. Sprinkle over the parmesan, thyme and seasoning, then toss again to cover. Tip the potatoes into the tin and spread out in an even layer. Roast for 40 mins, turning after 30 mins, until golden and just cooked through.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the watercress and tip into a food processor or mini chopper along with the soft cheese, lemon zest and juice, the Dijon mustard or horseradish sauce and plenty of seasoning. Blitz until you have a thick, bright green sauce. Scrape into a bowl and set aside. Will keep covered in the fridge for up to a day.
• Lay the salmon out on a board, skin-side down. With your hand positioned flat on top of the fillet, carefully use a long, sharp knife to slice into it from the side, being careful not to cut straight through. Open the fillet out like a book, then spread over half the sauce to cover the surface completely. Close the fillet again to enclose the sauce. Set aside until the potatoes are ready.
• After 40 mins, toss the potatoes again and push them to the sides of the tin, leaving space in the middle for the salmon. Nestle the salmon into the middle of the potatoes, skin-side down. Drizzle with the olive oil and roast for 15-20 mins until the salmon is just cooked through. Serve straight from the tray with a few sprigs of fresh watercress scattered over and the remaining watercress sauce on the side for drizzling.
