Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Rinse the quinoa under cold running water, then add it to a pot with a lid with 180ml [360ml] cold water
Bring to the boil over a high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, for 18-20 min or until the water has absorbed and the quinoa is tender
Once cooked, remove from the heat and leave to steam-dry, uncovered

Peel and chop the sweet potato[es] into large pieces
Add the chopped sweet potato to a heatproof bowl
Cover the bowl with cling film and pierce a few holes in the top
Put the bowl in the microwave and cook for 4-5 min or until the sweet potato is fork tender, once done, transfer the sweet potato to a plate and mash it out flat to help it cool down, reserve the bowl

While the sweet potato is in the microwave, cut the broccoli into small florets and cut the stem[s] into bite-sized pieces
Add the broccoli florets and chopped stem to a baking tray (use baking paper to avoid mess!) with a generous drizzle of olive oil and a grind of black pepper
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for an initial 10 min or until tender

Meanwhile, peel and finely slice (don't chop!) the garlic
Peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and finely chop (or grate) the ginger
Chop the coriander roughly, including the stalks

Return the cooled sweet potato to the reserved bowl with the salmon flakes, half the soy sauce (you'll use the rest later!) and most of the chopped coriander (save a little for garnish!)
Stir everything together until the fish cake mix is fully combined
Divide the mix into 2 [4], then shape into patties – these are your herby sweet potato & salmon fish cakes

Remove the broccoli from the oven after 10 min
Drizzle over the remaining soy sauce and sprinkle over the sliced garlic, chopped ginger, toasted sesame seeds and pumpkin seeds
Return the tray to the oven for 5 min or until the broccoli is lightly charred

While the broccoli is in the oven, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the herby sweet potato & salmon fish cakes and cook for 3-4 min on each side until browned and crispy, adding more vegetable oil if needed
Combine the chilli jam, rice vinegar and 2 tbsp [4 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt – this is your sweet chilli dressing

Combine the cooked quinoa and roasted broccoli and mix it together – these are your seeded broccoli grains
Serve the herby sweet potato & salmon fish cake over the seeded broccoli grains in bowls
Drizzle the sweet chilli dressing over the top and garnish with the remaining chopped coriander
Enjoy!
