PESTO INSTRUCTIONS
- 1Crush the garlic, then transfer it with all other ingredients (except salt) to a tall blending container and blend everything with an immersion blender until smooth. Season the finished pesto with a pinch of salt, seal it in a jar, and store it in the refrigerator, where it will last for 4–5 days. You can also store it in the freezer to preserve the pesto for the winter.
INSTRUCTIONS

- 3Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven at 175–180 °C and bake the vegetables for 15 minutes.
- 4Meanwhile, prepare the salmon. Place the fillets skin-side down, season with salt and pepper, and spread a teaspoon of basil pesto on top.
- 5After the time has elapsed, remove the baking sheet from the oven, add the prepared salmon fillets to the vegetables, and bake everything for another 10–12 minutes at 175–180 °C.
