Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking tray
  • Microwave proof bowl
  • Microwave

Ingredients

  • 4 potatoes medium (600g)
  • 1 red capsicum
  • 200 g feta cheese
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 4 pieces salmon skin on or off as you prefer
  • Olive oil 2.5 tbsp
  • 2 tablespoon Greek yoghurt
  • ¾ iceberg lettuce or 2 gem or 1 cos
  • 1 avocado
  • 2 teaspoon baby capers
  • ½ bunch dill
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200 C and line a baking tray.
  • Cut your potatoes into ½ cm rounds (skin on), place in a bowl, cover with water and in the microwave for 5 minutes.
    4 potatoes
  • Slice capsicum into strips and chop feta into squares. Zest and juice lemon. Sprinkle paprika, salt and pepper over salmon for adults. Little kids may prefer plain salmon. Set aside.
    1 red capsicum, 200 g feta cheese, 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon paprika, 4 pieces salmon, Salt and pepper
  • Once potatoes are done in the microwave, drain, and add to the tray. Drizzle over 1.5 tablespoons olive oil, and add salt and pepper (opt.) and place in the oven for 10 minutes.
    Olive oil, Salt and pepper
  • Mix together yoghurt, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt and pepper (opt.) to make a dressing.
    1 lemon, Olive oil, 2 tablespoon Greek yoghurt, Salt and pepper
  • Once the 10 minutes is up, take out the tray, flip potatoes and add capsicum, feta and salmon, then return to the oven for 12 minutes (depending on thickness of your salmon and how well you like it cooked, you may need to keep it in for longer).
    1 red capsicum, 200 g feta cheese, 4 pieces salmon
  • Slice lettuce into wedges and avocado into slices. Little ones may prefer their avocado and lettuce plain, if so add to their plates now.
    Add the rest to a serving bowl, then drizzle over dressing and sprinkle over capers. Tear half the dill and scatter over the salad (reserve half to top the salmon).
    ¾ iceberg lettuce, 1 avocado, 2 teaspoon baby capers, ½ bunch dill
  • Serve up salmon with a dusting of lemon zest, remaining dill, potatoes, feta and capsicum, alongside the green salad.
    Very little ones may just prefer flaked salmon (careful of bones), plain avocado, potato and a wedge of lettuce without dressing - but it’s up to you!
    1 lemon
