The grilled salmon with creamy cauliflower puree is a dinner that feels luxurious without being complicated. A tender piece of salmon with a lightly crispy crust rests on softly braised spinach with garlic. The silky cauliflower puree replaces potatoes and gives the plate a surprisingly creamy touch.

Why this recipe fits Phase 1: this phase calls for plenty of protein and few carbohydrates, and with thirty-three grams of protein and just eight grams of carbohydrates, this dish more than meets those requirements. The salmon delivers quality protein and healthy fats that keep you satisfied for longer, whilst cauliflower takes the place of starchy side dishes. So you get to enjoy a full dinner that fits perfectly within the protein diet.

Lovely with a squeeze of lemon over the salmon and some freshly ground pepper. If you'd like to make the plate even greener, serve a handful of steamed green beans alongside.

Zo maak je het

  1. Cook the cauliflower florets for 12 minutes until tender and drain.
  2. Blend the cauliflower with the cottage cheese, a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth.
  3. Season the salmon and bake or grill it for 4 minutes each side until cooked.
  4. Briefly fry the garlic in the olive oil and wilt the spinach in it.
  5. Place the salmon on the spinach and serve with the cauliflower puree on the side.

Bewaren

Keep the salmon and cauliflower puree separate, covered, for up to two days in the fridge. The puree freezes well; the salmon can be kept frozen for up to a month.

Variatietips

Replace the salmon with another fatty fish such as mackerel, or with a chicken fillet for a lighter version. Stir some mustard or fresh dill through the puree for extra character.
