For those nights you're craving sweet and savoury, opt for these baked salmon fillets with golden florets of roasted cauliflower.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium cauliflower, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp coriander

  • 1/2 tsp cumin

  • 1/4 tsp cardamom

  • 3/4 tsp salt

  • 4 salmon fillets, about 180 g each

  • fresh pepper

  • 4 tsp apricot jam

  • 1/3 cup coarsely chopped pistachios

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 400F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil. Toss cauliflower with olive oil, coriander, cumin, cardamom and 1/4 tsp salt on 1 prepared sheet. Spread in a single layer (it's okay if they touch). Bake in bottom third of oven until edges are golden, stirring halfway through, about 30 min.

  • ARRANGE salmon fillets, skin-side down, on second prepared sheet. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Season with fresh pepper. Brush apricot jam over tops of salmon. Sprinkle pistachios over salmon, pressing gently so they stick. Bake in top third of oven until a knife tip inserted into thickest part of fish comes out warm, 14 to 16 min.
