Frequently asked questions
- How long does Herb Crusted Lemon Garlic Salmon with Roasted Vegetables take to make?
- About 32 minutes in total, with 10 minutes of prep and 22 minutes of cooking. The salmon and vegetables bake together on one tray.
- Is Herb Crusted Lemon Garlic Salmon with Roasted Vegetables vegetarian?
- No, it contains salmon fillets, brushed with a parsley, dill and garlic mixture and baked with lemon slices. It is served with roasted vegetables.
- How do I know when the baked salmon is done?
- It should flake easily with a fork and look opaque in the centre. Take it out as soon as it reaches that point, as salmon dries out quickly once overcooked.
- Can I use a different fish instead of salmon?
- Swap it for trout fillets or a thick piece of cod. Thinner fillets cook faster, so check them a few minutes earlier.
- Which vegetables roast in the same time as the salmon?
- Carrot sticks, courgette slices and red onion wedges all roast in about the same time as the fillets. Cut the carrots thinner, as they take longest to soften.
