Mary Cadogan’s salmon with a cheesy crunch crust

Cheer up your friends with an easy salmon midweek meal – it’s got just five ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 4 x 175g salmon fillets
  • 50g softened butter
  • 4 tbsp slivered or flaked almonds
  • 4 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 50g Gruyère or emmental, coarsely grated

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas 5/fan oven 170C. Season the salmon steaks all over. Liberally butter a shallow ovenproof dish big enough to take the fish in one layer. Smear the salmon with the remaining butter.
  • Mix the almonds, parsley and the gruyère or emmental, then press on to the top of the steaks.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the topping is crisp and golden and the salmon cooked. Serve with potatoes and a green salad or broccoli.
