INGREDIENTS

• 4 175g skinless salmon fillets
• 1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
• One lemon thinly sliced
• Four fresh thyme sprigs
• Two teaspoons Dijon mustard
• One tablespoon white wine vinegar
• Three teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
• 1/2 teaspoon caster sugar
• Two bunches of asparagus, trimmed

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius. On two baking trays, place four 30cm squares of baking paper.

Place a salmon fillet on each, then top with lemon slices and a thyme sprig. Season with a teaspoon of oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. To make well-sealed parcels, fold the paper's edges together. Bake for 15 minutes, or until thoroughly done.

While salmon is baking, whisk the mustard, tarragon, vinegar, sugar, and remaining oil in a jug for the dressing and season.

Blanch the asparagus for 2 minutes in a pan of lightly salted boiling water until tender. Drain well, then keep warm.

To serve, arrange the salmon and asparagus on plates, top with a slice of lemon, a drizzle of tarragon dressing, and a sprig of thyme.

Regularly eating salmon may help protect you from heart disease. This is mainly due to salmon's capability to enhance blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Many people's blood has far more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids. According to an older study, after four weeks, eating two meals of farmed salmon each week boosted omega-3 blood levels by 8–9% and decreased omega-6 levels. Furthermore, some evidence suggests that eating fish regularly reduces several heart disease risk factors.

Salmon is an undeniably delicious fish. It has a distinct, delicate flavor that is less "fishy" than other fatty fish species like sardines and mackerel. It's also highly versatile. 

It can be steamed, sautéed, smoked, grilled, roasted or poached, among other options. Sushi and sashimi can be made using it raw.
