Friday Fish Dish – Salade Nicoise with Roasted Salmon

The signs of spring are not yet apparent. Channeling warm places, we suggest a classic south of France dish, Salade Niçoise. This colourful and beautifully platted fish dish is easy to prepare and is also a crowd pleaser. Perfect for a casual Friday evening or to serve for an impromptu cocktail party. Just add wine or bubbles with fruit juice mixes.

Instead of tuna we choose roasted salmon on a bed of haricot vert [french green beans] with roasted fingerling potatoes and roasted red peppers, garnished with egg wedges, crudités and lovely french olives; niçoise, nyons and picholines.

A perfect Salmon Niçoise wine paring would be a Provence Rose, The dry Roses’ fruitiness and crisp finish complement the platters medley of flavors and textures.
