Ingredients

Pesto Butter

Method

  • Peel the garlic and remove the sprout. Blend all ingredients for the pesto butter in a food processor or blender until smooth.
  • Cook asparagus, roots, and potatoes in the same pot. Start with the potatoes that take the longest to cook, then the roots, and finally the asparagus in a little water with olive oil and salt until tender.
  • Cut the salmon fillet into smaller pieces of about 3 x 3 cm. Heat a frying pan with a bit of olive oil and quickly cook the salmon over medium heat. Remove it from the pan as soon as it has a slight color and place it on a plate or in a baking dish.
  • Heat the pesto butter in a saucepan.
  • Mix half of the pesto sauce with the salmon and let it finish cooking gently.
  • Arrange asparagus, potatoes, and roots on warm plates, add the salmon, and spoon over the remaining pesto sauce.
  • Garnish with basil leaves.
