Ingredients

2 bunches Asparagus
6 oz Snap peas or 1 bag
2 Leeks
3 Lemons
2 tbsp Cumin seeds
4 tbsp Olive oil
6 cloves Garlic minced
3 tbsp Dill fresh and chopped
1/4 tbsp Salt
Black pepper to taste
Red pepper flakes if you like it spicy

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for a nice, even roast.
Prepare the veggies: Wash and trim the asparagus and snap peas. Clean leeks well, then slice them into thin rounds, removing any tough green parts. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, garlic, cumin seeds, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Prepare the salmon: Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, cumin seeds, minced garlic, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. You can use lemon zest for extra flavor.
Roast the veggies and salmon: Toast the seeds on an iron-cast frying pan. Spread the vegetables around the salmon on the baking sheet. Roast everything in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized. I actually prepared the salmon on an iron-cast frying pan because I like it more crispy.
Finish with fresh herbs: Remove the veggies from the oven (if you cooked your fish in the iron cast, place it on top of the vegetables). Sprinkle fresh dill over the salmon and veggies, squeeze more lemon juice, and serve!
