Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle. Cut potato into bite-size chunks. • Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water and add a generous pinch of salt. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to saucepan. • Set aside and allow to cool slightly.

2

• Meanwhile, preheat BBQ to high heat. Slice pear into thin wedges. • Roughly chop dill and capers. Slice lemon into wedges. • Pat salmon dry with paper towel. • In a medium bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add salmon, turning to coat. TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up when cooking!

3

• When BBQ is hot, grill bacon until golden, 3-5 minutes each side. • Remove from BBQ, then roughly chop. • Transfer to saucepan with cooked potatoes.

NO BBQ? Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook bacon, turning occasionally, until golden, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to saucepan with cooked potatoes.

• Meanwhile, grill salmon, until just charred and cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side. • Transfer to a plate, add a generous squeeze of lemon juice and set aside to rest. NO BBQ?
