Method

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until tender. Drain and allow to cool for a few minutes. Heat the grill to high, season the salmon fillets and grill for 8 to 10 minutes until just cooked through.

  2. Toss the potatoes through with the capers, cornichons and spring onions and season. Mix the mustard together with the vinegar and sugar, and add the oil gradually to form a thick vinaigrette. Season well.

  3. When the salmon is cooked through, flake into large pieces. Dress the potatoes with the vinaigrette, scatter over the parsley and add the salmon flakes. Serve warm immediately, or leave to cool and serve at room temperature.
