Name: Indian Salmon Salad With Spiced Beans, Flat Breads, Mango Chutney And Yoghurt
Cuisine: International
Ingredients: Salmon and marinade; 2 wild salmon fillets (I buy frozen wild salmon as it is much cheaper than fresh, and most 'fresh salmon' has been frozen at sea and just defrosted in store); 2 tablespoons plain natural yoghurt (low fat is fine); 2 teaspoons curry powder (I like Sharwoods Madras powder); 1 teaspoon oil (I used coconut oil but any oil is fine); Spiced Indian beans and extras; 1 can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed; 4 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced; 1 red Thai chili, left whole (If you don't have a fresh chili you could use a pinch of chili flakes); 1 pinch cumin seeds or half a teaspoon of ground cumin; 2 tomatoes, chopped into small cubes around 1cm square; 10 mint leaves, finely shredded; 1 lemon or lime, juiced; Salt to taste; 1-2 wholegrain flatbreads per person; 2 tablespoons plain natural yoghurt; 2 tablespoons mango chutney (I like Sharwoods); lemon or lime wedges

In a bowl that will be big enough to hold your salmon, mix together the yoghurt and curry powder before adding the salmon and stirring so that the salmon is coated. Set aside while you prep the beans or pop in the fridge for up to a day before cooking. Get started on the beans by slicing the garlic then placing a small saucepan over a medium heat and adding the oil to warm. Add the garlic to the oil along with the chili and cumin seeds and cook for a couple of minutes until the garlic is starting to turn gently golden. You don't want the garlic to brown. Add the beans to the pan of garlic and spice, stir and keep on a low heat to warm the beans through. Chop the tomatoes and mint and stir them into the pan of beans with a pinch of salt and cook for another 2 minutes until the tomatoes have started to soften. Then take off the heat, add the lemon juice, taste and add more salt if needed. Set aside. Heat a non stick frying pan over a medium high heat then add the oil. When the oil is hot, place the marinaded salmon in, you want a decent amount of the marinade to still be on the salmon as this will form a gorgeous crust. You want a decent sizzle when you put the salmon in so be brave and don't turn the heat down. The sizzle will make the crust. Don't be temped to try and turn the salmon until it has been cooking for 5 minutes as it will fall apart. As the yoghurt cooks it will form a crust which will hold the salmon together and make it easier to turn. While the salmon cooks, start to plate up your arugula (rocket) with the beans sitting on top, chop lemon or lime wedges to serve with it. Pop your flatbreads in the toaster or toast them in a dry frying pan. Turn the salmon over after around 5 minutes or when the salmon is looking to be cooked almost half way up the side of the piece of fish. You will see the salmon turning opaque as it cooks and this line of opaque pink will rise as the salmon cooks through. I like my salmon pretty rare so I like to see a decent amount
