Ingredients
  

  • 600 g salmon fillets
  • 200 g baby spinach
  • 150 g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 150 g green cabbage, finely sliced
  • 30 g fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 60 ml fresh orange juice
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 60 g tahini (for drizzling) optional

Equipment

  • Baking tray
  • Chef's knife
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Grill pan or frying pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of cumin.
  3. Place the salmon on the grill or frying pan; cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through (internal temperature of 63°C / 145°F).
  4. While the salmon is cooking, prepare the salad by combining baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, and sliced cabbage in a large mixing bowl.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  6. Once the salmon is done, allow it to rest for a few minutes before flaking it into large pieces.
  7. Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  8. Top the salad with the flaked salmon and garnish with chopped cilantro.
  9. Serve with tahini drizzled on the side. Enjoy your delicious bowl of goodness!
