Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1
  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
  • Peel potato and cut into large chunks.
  • Thinly slice kale, discarding any larger pieces of stalk. Thinly slice spring onion.
  • Trim baby broccoli. Halve any thicker stalks of baby broccoli lengthways.
  • Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides. 

Make the colcannon
2
  • Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt.
  • Cook chopped potato in the boiling water for 12 minutes. Place a colander or steamer basket on top and add kale.
  • Cover and steam until kale is wilted and potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes and return to saucepan. Add the milk, butter and a pinch of salt and mash until smooth. Stir through steamed kale and spring onion, cover to keep warm.
Cook the salmon
3
  • Meanwhile, place salmon and baby broccoli on a lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil and turn to coat.
  • Bake until cooked through, 10-14 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Serve up
4
  • Just before serving, in a medium bowl, combine gravy granules and the boiling water, whisking, until smooth, 1 minute.
  • Divide Irish inspired colcannon, baby broccoli and salmon between plates. Pour over gravy to serve. Enjoy!

ELEVATE ME: If you've added extra ingredients to this recipe, stir horseradish sauce through the colcannon. In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave red wine jus until melted and warmed through, 30 seconds. Pour over red wine jus and tear over parsley to serve.
