This elegant slow-cooked salmon with turnips and Swiss chard is a wonderful example of how gentle cooking techniques can transform simple ingredients. By roasting the salmon at a low temperature, the fish retains a succulent, buttery texture that pairs beautifully with the earthy notes of the vegetables. The addition of fresh coriander, flat-leaf parsley and a hint of sesame oil provides a vibrant, aromatic finish that lifts the entire dish without the need for heavy sauces.

Ingredients for Slow-Cooked Salmon with Turnips and Swiss Chard
110g pieces skinless salmon fillet
60ml olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt
4 garlic cloves, peeled, smashed
675g small turnips, scrubbed, halved, quartered if large
Freshly ground black pepper
2 bunches Swiss chard
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Toasted sesame seeds (for serving)
How to make Slow-Cooked Salmon with Turnips and Swiss Chard
Preheat oven to 250°. Place salmon in a large baking dish; drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with lemon zest, and gently rub into flesh. Season with salt and scatter garlic around. Bake until salmon is medium-rare(mostly opaque but still slightly translucent in the centre), 30-35 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine turnips, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 240ml water in a large skillet; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until turnips are fork-tender, 15-20 minutes. Uncover and cook, tossing occasionally, until liquid is evaporated and turnips are golden, 5 minutes.
While turnips are cooking, remove ribs and stems from Swiss chard leaves. Thinly slice ribs, stems, and leaves crosswise. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shallot and Swiss chard ribs and stems, stirring often, until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add Swiss chard leaves and cook, tossing often, until leaves are wilted, about 2 minutes. Toss in coriander, parsley, and lime juice; season with salt.
Drizzle salmon with sesame oil. Serve salmon with Swiss chard and turnips, topped with sesame seeds.
