Baked salmon with a garlic and fennel mustard crust.

The fennel flavour of this Bay Tree mustard marries perfectly with salmon.


What to do:

1. Preheat the oven to 180'C.
2. Place the salmon skin-side down in a lightly oiled pan and fry for a minute until crisp.
3. Remove from the pan and place on a baking tray.
4. Mix the mustard, breadcrumbs, almonds and dill in a bowl.
5. Spread the mixture evenly on top of the salmon fillets, and sprinkle with the extra breadcrumbs.
6. Roast for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked (about four minutes per 1cm thickness).
7. Serve on a bed of watercress with new potatoes and a slice of lemon.
