Method

  • Step 1

    Add the almonds to zone 1 drawer, without the crisper plate installed. Select Zone 1, then turn the dial to AIR FRY and set the temperature to 180°C and the time to 6 minutes. Press START/STOP to begin cooking. Shake the almonds halfway through cooking then transfer to a plate and leave to cool down before roughly chopping.

  • Step 2

    In a small bowl stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, garlic granules, onion granules and sea salt until combined. Divide equally between the salmon fillets, spreading over the tops and sides.

  • Step 3

    Crush the gluten-free cornflakes by hand or place them into a ziplock bag and bash with a rolling pin until you get a coarse crumb. Spoon over the salmon fillets and gently pat until coated evenly.

  • Step 4

    Insert the crisper plate into the zone 2 drawer and spray with cooking spray. Place the salmon fillets into the drawer and close.

  • Step 5

    Add the coconut oil, chopped garlic, and cardamom seeds to the zone 1 drawer and close. Select Zone 1, then turn the dial to AIR FRY and set the temperature to 180°C and the time to 8 minutes. Press MATCH, then START/STOP to begin cooking.

  • Step 6

    After 1 minute add the sea salt and broccoli florets to the zone 1 drawer, shake or stir, then close the drawer and cook for 5 minutes before adding the shredded cavolo nero.

  • Step 7

    When the unit has finished cooking add the chopped toasted almonds, lemon juice and zest to the zone 1 and stir. Serve the salmon and vegetables immediately and enjoy.
