  • 400g kale
  • 4 shallots
  • 2 garlic clove
From your kitchen
  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 3 tbsp cold water
You'll need
  • Roasting tin
  • Medium pan
  • Frying pan
Step by step this way
  • 1.

    Preheat your oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/ Gas 6. Scrub the potatoes and cut them into chips as thick as your finger. Scatter the chips into a large roasting tin and toss with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Slide the chips into the oven and roast for 25 mins.

  • 2.

    Meanwhile, tip the breadcrumbs into a bowl. Finely chop the parsley leaves and stalks and add them to the breadcrumbs. Grate in the lemon zest. Add a little salt and pepper and 1 tbsp oil and stir to mix. Tip the breadcrumb mixture onto a plate. Roll the salmon fillets in the mixture to coat them on all sides.

  • 3.

    Slice the woody cores from the kale. Roughly chop the leaves. Peel and thinly slice the shallots. Peel and finely chop the garlic clove.

  • 4.

    When the chips have roasted for 25 mins, remove the tin from the oven. Turn the chips over, and make 2 spaces for the salmon fillets. Tuck the salmon into the tin and return to the oven for a further 12-15 mins, till the chips are golden and the salmon is cooked through – it should be dark pink and flake easily when pressed with a fork.

  • 5.

    While the salmon and chips finish cooking, pour 1 tbsp oil into a frying pan and warm to a mediumhigh heat. Add the shallots and garlic and fry for 1-2 mins, till slightly softened. Add the kale with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour in 3 tbsp cold water and fry for 4-5 mins to wilt the kale. Squeeze in the juice from half the lemon.

  • 6.

    Divide the kale and chips between a couple of plates, top with the salmon fillets and serve with a couple of lemon wedges on the side.
