Tandoor salmon with spinach and lentils
Adapted from Joe Wicks
Ingredients
8 tbsp thick Greek yogurt
4 tbsp ground almonds
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2cm root ginger, finely chopped
2 tsp garam masala
1½ tsp smoked paprika
4 x 175g skinless fillets of salmon (2 per serving)
175g mangetout or frozen peas
2 massive handfuls of baby spinach leaves
Lemon to squeeze juice
Salt and pepper
1 packet microwave lentils
Method
Preheat your grill to high. Tip the yogurt, ground almonds, garlic, ginger, garam masala and paprika into a bowl, along with a good amount of salt and pepper and a drizzle of water. Mix to form a thick spice paste, then smother over the salmon.
Place the coated salmon on a baking tray and slide under the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes, without turning. The salmon will turn a dark golden colour and catch in a couple of spots – that's absolutely fine.
While the salmon is cooking, boil the mangetout or peas.
Put the lentils in the microwave to cook for 1 minute.
Place the spinach in a colander. When the mangetout or peas are ready, tip them into the colander with the spinach to drain – the hot water will wilt the spinach slightly.
Put about 1/4 of the lentils on the plate and add half the veggies. Squeeze some lemon juice over the lentils and veg and season with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on top.
