Grilled Salmon
with Dill Crushed Potatoes
Here’s a recipe that proves that you don’t need loads of time in the kitchen to create a showstopping dish. Though we warm the creamy dill sauce in the recipe, it is also delicious cold if you’re really short of time. Simple, fresh and good for you, this is the perfect thing to rustle up for a quick-fix weeknight dinner.
