1

Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the cauliflowers and cook until very tender. Drain.

2

Heat the cream and 1 garlic clove in a saucepan until just simmering. Add the cooked cauliflowers. Using a hand-held blender, blitz until completely smooth. Pass through a sieve for a silky texture and season with salt and pepper.

3

Toss the Fioretto and Murasaki florets with a drizzle of olive oil and grill or roast at 200°C, gas mark 6, until lightly charred and tender. Chop the green broccoli into tiny florets, toss with olive oil and roast in the air fryer at 180°C for 15–20 minutes until crisp and slightly charred.

4

Place the salmon in a deep saucepan with the thyme, remaining garlic cloves and citrus peels. Pour over 500ml of olive oil so the fillets are completely submerged. Heat gently until the oil reaches 52°C, then remove from the heat and allow the salmon to rest in the oil for 5 minutes. Alternative method: cook in the oven at 120°C, lowest gas mark, for 20 minutes.

5

Spoon the cauliflower sauce onto plates. Place the poached salmon fillets on top, add the grilled Fioretto and Murasaki, and finish with the crispy broccoli.
