Salmon in a Bag: Inspiration for Spring

Salmon is a staple in my kitchen as a pescatarian, and green leaves in all its forms find their way into almost every dish. Years ago, Jamie Oliver entered the scene with new ways of thinking about food. One of his early scoops was 'bagged' food cooked to light perfection in no time.

This idea of wrapping vegetables, chicken or fish into grease proof paper - and letting them cook in their own juices made cooking so much easier. That it tasted better too was the extra highlight. Now - With a new take on healthier food the 'bag' come into play even more, as the nutrition content is so much higher when you don't have to add oil, or anything else. 

This recipe came about as I had a cravings for Asian flavours, and with fresh ginger in the house I set about to re-create the Jamie 'bag' idea. 

Recipe: Salmon in a Bag with Asian Greens

This recipe is superfood maxed with salmon, spinach, broccoli, zucchini and ginger. It is easy to do, and perfect for a light dinner - or to impress guests with their own individual bags that can be cut up at the dinner table.

For best results I recommend getting your fresh salmon filets from your fish monger or supermarket counter and the best (organic) vegetables you can find.

It takes very little time to prepare and cook. It is even easier if you have all your ingredients laid out. Set the time to 15 minutes mentally as the actual food prep, and cooking time takes just that: 15 minutes. 

If you're having guests you can prepare each salmon piece in its individual bag, and set the oven. The cooking time is short - 10 minutes - so put your oven tray into the oven as you invite your guest to table and soon enough you can serve up individual bags for each guest. You will make quite an impression as the cutting up of the bags provides for 'Oh's!' and 'Ah's!'.
