In this dish, we're showcasing samphire- a beautiful sea vegetable that grows on beaches. It has a naturally salty flavour and crunchy texture that works beautifully with fish. You'll sprinkle this salmon pasta with a hazelnut 'dukkah', a seasoning made from toasted nuts, sesame seeds and spices for a rich, tasty topping!

Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Boil a kettle and preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7
Add the hazelnuts and sesame seeds to a baking tray
Put the tray in the oven for 10 min or until the nuts and seeds have slightly darkened (toasted)
2
Meanwhile, add the pasta to a pot of boiling water over a high heat with a big pinch of salt
Bring to the boil and cook for 8-10 min, or until cooked but with a slight bite
Once cooked, drain and return to the pot
3
Meanwhile, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a matching lid over a medium-high heat with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] vegetable oil
Pat the salmon fillets dry with kitchen towel and season on both sides with salt
Once the pan is hot, add the salmon, skin-side down and cook for 3-4 min or until the skin is crispy
4
Meanwhile, add the coriander seeds and cumin seeds to the hazelnuts and put the tray back in the oven for 1 min further (this toasts the spices, which releases their aroma)
Once done, transfer (reserve the tray for the next step!) the toasted hazelnut mixture to a pestle and mortar (or food processor) and set aside to cool
5
Transfer the crispy-skinned salmon, skin-side up, to your baking tray (use tin foil to avoid mess!) and reserve the pan for later
Put the salmon in the oven for 4-6 min or until the salmon has cooked
Tip: Your fish is done when it is opaque and flakes easily
6
Meanwhile, crush (or pulse in a food processor) the cooled nuts and seeds to a sandy, nutty rubble
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper - this is your dukkah
7
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with 40g [80g] butter
Once melted, add the samphire with a small splash of water, cover and cook for no more than 1 min (the samphire hardly needs any cooking at all!)
Meanwhile, cut the lemon in half and squeeze half the juice into the drained pasta
