Instructions

for AIR FRYER

  1. Line 1/2 your air fryer basket with baking paper or parchment paper so the veggie rice won't fall through the holes. Cover with frozen veggie rice in a single layer. Place frozen salmon skin side up on the wire next to the veggie rice.

  2. Set the air fryer to 200C (400F). Cook for 10 minutes.
  3. When the timer goes, check the salmon - it may need a few minutes longer depending on how thick the fillet was, how well cooked you like your salmon and how crispy you want your skin.

for OVEN

  1. Turn your oven to 250C (480F). Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper.

  2. Place frozen salmon Skin side up on the tray. Place the frozen broccoli rice in a thin pile next to the salmon (no need to defrost).

  3. Pop tray in the oven and set your timer for 12 minutes. Put your feet up.
  4. When the timer goes, check the salmon - it may need a few minutes longer depending on your oven.

To serve (both methods)

  1. Mix yoghurt in a small bowl with a pinch of salt.
  2. When the salmon is cooked and the broccoli rice is hot, remove from the oven. Place broccoli rice on a plate and drizzle over the yoghurt. Top with hot salmon.
  3. Scatter over the fresh herbs (if using).
