How to make Salmon with Potato Salad and Horseradish Yoghurt

Preheat oven to 121°C. Place potatoes in a medium pot. Pour in water to cover and add a few generous pinches of salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and gently simmer until a paring knife easily pierces potatoes, 20–25 minutes.

Meanwhile, place salmon in a large baking dish and coat with oil. Season both sides with salt and pepper; place skin side down and sprinkle with caraway. Bake until a cake tester or thin knife blade inserted laterally through fillet meets no resistance, 25–30 minutes. (Fish should be opaque throughout and just able to flake.) While the potatoes and salmon are doing their thing, make the dressing and the horseradish yoghurt.

Whisk oil and vinegar in a bowl big enough to hold the potatoes. Whisk half of spring onions and tarragon into dressing. Set remaining spring onions and tarragon aside for serving.

Combine horseradish, vinegar, and a large pinch of salt in a small bowl; let sit 5 minutes. Whisk in yoghurt and oil; season with salt and pepper.

As soon as potatoes are done cooking, drain and add to bowl with dressing. Toss to coat and season with kosher salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium. Toss herbs and cornflour in a fine-mesh sieve. Test oil temperature by adding an herb leaf. The oil should sizzle intensely (it may spatter) and the leaf should darken on contact. Fry herbs in batches until crisp and vibrant green, about 5 seconds per batch. Transfer to paper towels with a slotted spoon. Season lightly with kosher salt. (If you’d like to skip this step, we get it. Chop herbs instead.)

Dress salmon with fried herbs and sea salt. Toss potatoes to redistribute dressing and top with sea salt and reserved spring onions and tarragon. Serve salmon with potatoes and horseradish yoghurt alongside.
