Cooking Steps

Roast the sweet potato
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• Place sweet potato chunks on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season 
with salt and toss to coat. 
• Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.  
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.  

Get prepped & cook the veggies
2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice capsicum into strips. Drain sweetcorn. Thinly slice 
cucumber into rounds. Slice lime into wedges. 
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook capsicum and 
corn kernels, tossing, until tender and lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. 
• Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly. 

Cook the fish
3

• Wipe out frying pan then return to medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. • Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides.
• When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side.
TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!

Finish & serve
4

• To the bowl with capsicum, add gourmet leaf mix, cucumber, a good squeeze of 
lime juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. 
• Slice fish, if preferred.
• Divide charred veg salad and sweet potato between plates, then top with  
Baja-style salmon. 
• SPICY! This is sauce is hot, but use less if you’re sensitive to heat! Drizzle over garlic 
aioli and mild chipotle sauce.
• Serve with remaining lime wedges. Enjoy!
