This elegant walnut-crusted salmon offers a sophisticated blend of textures and flavours, making it a standout choice for a nutritious midweek meal. The earthy, toasted notes of ground walnuts or pecans provide a satisfying crunch that perfectly complements the rich, oily flakes of wild salmon. Infused with aromatic star anise and the tangy sweetness of pomegranate molasses, this dish brings a unique Middle Eastern-inspired twist to your dinner table.
As a heart-healthy main course, this recipe is naturally rich in essential omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. The bed of thinly sliced daikon radish adds a mild, peppery bite and absorbs the savoury juices as the fish bakes. It is an excellent option for those seeking a gluten-free and refined sugar-free dinner that feels truly indulgent without being heavy.

In a baking dish, toss the radishes with a drizzle of olive oil and smoked salt.
Place the salmon on top of the radishes, skin down.
Pulse the walnuts in a grinder until finely ground.
