Ingredients for 2 servings

2 servings

Check off ingredients as you go.

Contains fish, milk.

Cooking steps

  1. Boil the potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, adding the peas for the last 3 minutes. Drain them.

  2. Mix the yoghurt, dill and lemon juice.

  3. Divide the potatoes and peas between two bowls and lay the salmon over them.

  4. Spoon the dressing over. Serve it warm with salmon you have just cooked, or cold with salmon that has been properly chilled, but decide which before you start: the two are handled differently.

The useful detail

Choose one serving temperature and handle all ingredients accordingly. A bowl assembled warm and then refrigerated sits for hours in the range where food spoils fastest.

Make it work for you

One serving is A bowl, half the mixture. You can switch to a smaller portion in the ingredients above; it is three quarters of this, and it contains correspondingly less energy and protein. It is an option, not a goal.

  • Tinned salmon instead of a cooked fillet

    Softer flakes, and a store-cupboard version of the same bowl.

    Per serving: about 70 kcal less, about 3 g more protein, about 8 g less fat.

  • Cooked prawns instead of salmon

    Leaner and springier.

    Per serving: about 105 kcal less, about 2 g more protein, about 12 g less fat.

    Allergens: Removes fish; adds crustaceans.

  • 2% Greek yoghurt

    Thicker, and it coats rather than pools.

    Per serving: about 5 kcal more, about 3 g more protein, about the same fat.

Estimated nutrition

Per standard serving, calculated from the ingredients above. Nutrition changes with substitutions, brands and how much oil stays in the pan.

A bowl built around a leftover salmon fillet, with the potatoes carrying the energy and the yoghurt dressing replacing mayonnaise.

Show calculation notes

Each ingredient’s weight is multiplied by its USDA FoodData Central values per 100 g. The whole recipe is added up and divided by 2. Raw weights are used for meat, fish and vegetables; beans and lentils are drained weights. All of the oil is counted as eaten. Added salt is not included; sodium from stock, bread, cheese and tinned food is.

Per serving the energy is rounded to the nearest 5 kcal, grams to the nearest whole gram and sodium to the nearest 10 mg. Ingredients marked “Not calculated” are excluded and could add at most 3 kcal to the whole recipe. Calculation method 1.0, September 2026. How the calculation works.

Storage and reheating

In the fridge
Cool, cover and refrigerate within 2 hours of cooking. Eat within 3 to 4 days. Cooked salmon keeps 3 to 4 days and should be reheated only once, if at all.
In the freezer
The FDA chart gives cooked fish 4 to 6 months in the freezer for best quality.
Reheating
Reheat until it reaches 74°C / 165°F, steaming hot throughout.

Checked against US Food and Drug Administration, Refrigerator and Freezer Storage Chart, USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service, Leftovers and Food Safety, FoodSafety.gov, Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures and FoodSafety.gov, Cold Food Storage Chart. UK guidance from the Food Standards Agency is shorter, at two days for most leftovers.
