Wild salmon is a great source of omega 3 (I try to avoid farmed salmon for both environmental and nutritional reasons) and it is also so versatile - delicious grilled, roasted, fried, hot, cold ... even raw!! This is a super-easy way of cooking a delicious and healthy meal. Serve with a green salad or green beans.

Born in the UK, I came to Spain after graduating many moons and meals ago, and I'm still here. For me cooking is a great way to unwind at the end of the day. My recipes tend to be quite quick and simple and (mostly!!) healthy too. Also quite seasonal - I prefer buying fresh local produce as much as possible. When I have time, I love spending a few hours cooking, filling my kitchen with delicious smells and great music and then hosting family and friends for long happy meals, laughs, conversation and chilled white wine. I'm a great believer in the power and value of home cooking for our own health, happiness and wellbeing and those of our loved ones and since I joined the Cookpad team 11 years ago I am committed to helping to make everyday cooking more fun for people all over the World.
