Ingredients
- 1.5 lb Salmon
- 1.5 lb New potatoes
- 1/2 cup Dill
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 1/2 cup Sour cream
- 1 Lemon
- 2 tbsp Capers
Steps
- Boil the potatoes until just tender; crush lightly and toss with melted butter and half the dill.
- Roast the salmon at 425°F for 12–14 minutes until it flakes at the thickest point but stays rosy inside.
- Stir the remaining dill and lemon zest into the sour cream for a quick cold sauce.
- Plate the salmon over the dill potatoes with the sauce and capers; weeknight Nordic luxury.
- Leftover salmon flakes beautifully into a salad the next day — cook extra deliberately.
