Salmon Parcel

"I still eat fish, mainly because I am a health nut and I cant actually afford flaxseed oil right now. Salmon is beyond my favourite fish and is probably my only trip up when it comes to my wanting to live as vegan as possible. This is quick with really light flavours."

directions

  • Preheat oven to 180°F (350°F).
  • Get 4 sheets of tinfoil, enough to make a bag for each individual fillet.
  • Lightly oil the base.
  • Spoon on lemon grass, dill and parsley into the center of each sheet.
  • Score the skin of each fillet and lay skin side down onto herbs.
  • Season flesh side with salt and pepper.
  • Bring up sides of foil and fold down until its tight but still enough room for fillet to breath. Bring in other sides.
  • On a baking tray place parcels and put into the oven. Shouldn't take any more then 10 minutes to cook fish through but you may want to check to make sure fish has flaked.
  • In the meantime cut cherry tomatoes into quarters and cut the capsicum/pepper into small thin strips. Toss together with baby spinach, herbs and the red wine vinegar.
  • When salmon is ready I suggest serving it in a bag so the eater can open it up and be hit with the aroma. If not fish people plate the fillet with a side of the small salad. Salmon also goes devine with some diced cantaloupe, papaya and kiwi fruit.

  1. This is a great way to cook salmon. No clean up, just toss the foil. As a bonus, it is delicious. When done it still comes out with all of it's deep orange color. The salad is a perfect match for the fish. I coverted the european measurments: cook at 360 degrees for 10-30 minutes depending on the wellness you prefer. For the salad, just put some spinach in a bowl, add some herbs, tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, wine winegar, all to taste and mix. Also try it with italian dressing instead of the vinegar.

I’m a Libra, I’m also an INFP (Jung - Myers-Briggs typology). The INFP explains me better then my star sign. I’m a sloppy perfectionist. I crave solitude. I’m constantly in need of an escape. I’m a huge music fan with the smallest music collection. I’m quietly spoken with wild ideas and a hyperactivity problem I keep in check by exercise. I’m an artist, a painter, a photographer, and a writer. I like to use a new word every time I discover it. I love to read and I am currently catching up on the classics (if you have a book that I have to read, tell me). I'm a Martial Artist with a green belt in free style Kung Fu (Akido, Bushido, Kali and Karate also). I'm also about to do the intermediate course in pole dancing. I love to cook, its my meditation after a long day. I wish that I could be in a rock’n’roll band. I love to write. I'm an insomniac. I'm mainly vegetarian. I live on 14 acres of Austrlaian Bush. I miss Melbourne. I love Thunderstorms. I consider myself a Photographer. I am silly/serious, often aimless, sometimes arrogant, always contradictory; which means it takes people a long time to really know me. I can be blunt to the point of rude, overly critically, in the need to always be right with a fundamental difficulty of understanding humans. I'm hyper active most of the time. I NEED to learn to accept existence.
