Bacon Wrapped Salmon

Bacon Wrapped Salmon
Fancy a quick meal? Fire up your oven to 180C (350F?) ...

I've made this before using pancetta, but this time: bacon. Served with some leaves, asparagus and a few potatoes, you can get this lot from ingredients to a meal on a plate in about 20 minutes.

First, wrap a piece of bacon around your salmon fillets. Commit to the oven - this will need 20 minutes.

Next, get your veggies boiling, steaming or whatever it is you do with the veggies you've picked. I went with asparagus and potatoes; so, potatoes in to boil (15 minutes) and asparagus on top to steam (for the last few minutes).

Meanwhile, dress a plate with some salad leaves, drop on a few capers, a few slivers of pickled garlic and a good slosh of olive oil.

Everything cooked?

Plate up ...
