Method

  3. Heat a skillet with oil, place the salmon1 skin-side down, and cook for 4 minutes until the skin is golden.

  4. Flip the fish and cook for another 2 minutes, until the flesh is opaque on the outside and juicy inside.

  6. Fluff the couscous2 with a fork, add it to the skillet, drizzle with lemon5 juice, and heat through for 1 minute.

Tips

Why it works
Жарь лосось сначала кожей вниз: жир под кожей плавится, и низ успевает стать плотным за 4 минуты без пересушивания середины.
Substitutions
Шпинат замени 80 г мангольда или молодой капусты, готовь на 1–2 минуты дольше. Оливковое масло можно заменить таким же количеством подсолнечного.
Common mistakes
Частая ошибка — передержать рыбу: снаружи она становится сухой и бледной, а белок выступает хлопьями по краям.
Storing and reheating
Храни в холодильнике до 2 дней. Разогревай на слабом огне под крышкой 3–4 минуты, добавив 1–2 ложки воды к кускусу.
Serve with
Подавай на ужин с огурцом или помидорами, чтобы добавить свежий хруст к мягкому кускусу и шпинату.
