- Dressing. To make the dressing, place the garlic and salt in a mortar and crush well. Stir the garlic, yoghurt and tahini together until it becomes a thick paste. Mix slightly with lemon juice (consistency of pure cream). Taste for salt and refrigerate.
- Salmon. Preheat the oven to 50˚c. Place the salmon fillets on a large sheet of baking paper. Season all over with salt and pepper and liberally drizzle olive oil. Cook until salmon is cooked through and flakes or internal temperature reaches 48˚c. Remove from the oven and leave to cool to room temperature.
- Salad. Turn the oven up to 200˚c and roast nuts until coloured. Remove from the oven. Chop finely and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk the remaining oil with the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the onion and chilli and whisk lightly. Add the chopped walnuts, herbs and sumac.
- Plating. Spread or pipe yoghurt dressing over the top of the salmon. Spoon the salad over the salmon, covering it as neatly as possible. Sprinkle with micro herbs and pomegranate.
