Method
Step 1
Put the salmon and dill into a deep-sided pan; cover with cold water. Place on a medium heat until it’s about to boil, then turn down to just simmering. Poach for 10-12 mins for a slightly underdone middle, or 15-16 mins to cook through.Step 2
Remove the salmon from the water, discarding the dill sprigs, and drain on kitchen towel. Set aside to cool slightly.Step 3
Make the dressing by whisking the ingredients together; season with pepper.Step 4
To serve, toss the courgette and rocket in a bowl with the dressing, then tip onto a platter and top with the feta, pomegranate and herbs. Flake the fish over the top, discarding any skin. Finish with a drizzle of oil, a twist of pepper and scattering of dill fronds.
