  • Shred the cavolo nero and blanch in boiling salted water with a knob of butter.
  • On a hot griddle pan cook the salmon for 3-4 mins each side alternating the angle to get the criss-crossed charred effect.

  • Once the salmon is halfway cooked and the first criss-crossed side is facing upwards, spoon over a few tablespoons of the glaze.
  • Then once the salmon is cooked, place the salad onto a plate, add the salmon on top and if desired spoon over the remaining glaze.
