Dinner 17.10.15 - Baked Salmon with diced potatoes, dressed with grated cheese.

Good baking evening everyone!

Having baked salmon to tenderness successfully, I decided to do a variation with additional flavors.  Check out the recipe below:

Baked Salmon with diced potatoes, dressed with grated cheese.

Below is the recipe:

Ingredients (serves 2, you may change quantity based on preference):

• Salmon 200g
• 1 Large or 2 Medium sized potatoes (I used 1 large in this instance)
• Cheese, grated 50g (I measure by using 2 grasps)
• Garlic x 6 cloves
• Shallots (small) x 3 
• Salt & Black Pepper (1/2 - 1 teaspoon each) 
• Butter or Margarine

Preparation:
Salmon
Rub salt and pepper all over the salmon, set aside.  For cut, I would recommend to choose a slab, but avoid taking too thick a slice as those can be quite boney.

Potato(es)
Skin off, dice to about 8 sections each.  Season with butter or margarine, and pepper by stirring them evenly into the diced potatoes.  Do not add salt else potatoes will turn watery.

Seasoning
Slice garlic and onions.  Cut them into small, but not too fine pieces.

Cooking instructions:
Preheat oven to 175degrees Celsius.  Lay salmon into small casserole.  Spread garlic & onion onto salmon.  Round it with seasoned potatoes. 

Cover the top of the casserole with tin foil.   Make holes evenly on this for ventilation purpose.

Bake for 40 minutes.

Serve, dress with grated cheese.
