Good to know

Air-fried Brussels sprouts taste nutty and not at all cabbagey. They get an 8-minute head start, then the salmon cooks alongside. The skyr and mustard dip is ready before the basket beeps.

Swaps

Salmon → trout or Arctic char. Skyr → Greek yoghurt (creamier). Brussels sprouts → broccoli (2 minutes less). Dill → chives.

Cooking tips

Halve large sprouts and leave small ones whole, so they're all done at the same time. The salmon is ready when it just flakes apart in the middle.

Storage

Keep the salmon and sprouts in the fridge for 1 day; store the dip separately.

Allergens

Contains fish, milk and mustard; gluten-free. In pregnancy, cook the salmon right through.
