COMFORT FOOD // Honey Seared Salmon + Sweet Potato Mash

DF   SF   GF   PALEO

This is healthy comfort food which, unlike many other dishes in its category, will not make you feel like a roly poly pudding. Love winter dishes like these.

I decided I was going to eat this less than half an hour before it was hot on the plate, so it would work well for a weeknight dinner.

INGREDIENTS (serves 2)

2 salmon fillets
2 small sweet potatoes or 1 large
50mls coconut milk
1 tbsp chopped chives
pinch black pepper
1 tsp honey

METHOD

1. Peel and chop potatoes into cubes and cook in a pan of boiling water until soft.
2. Drain potatoes then mash in a medium bowl with the coconut milk. Stir in the chives.
3. Drizzle the honey on the salmon fillets and season with black pepper.
4. Heat a non-stick pan and sear the salmon fillets, approx 2 minutes each side or until slightly blackened. It's fine if the middle is still a bit pink.
5. Serve and munch.
