Baked Salmon with Herby Crust

Kids
9-12 months
Serves 2 adults & 2 toddlers

2 tsp olive oil
3 salmon fillets, skinless
4 tbsp breadcrumbs
zest of 1/2 a lemon
handful fresh herbs, chopped
3 tbsp parmesan, finely grated (optional)
green vegetables of your choice, steamed, to serve

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees, fan 160, gas mark 4.
Brush a little of the oil in a roasting tin and add the salmon fillets.
In a bowl mix together the breadcrumbs, lemon zest, herbs and parmesan (if using) and sprinkle over the fish. Using your hands, press the mixture onto the fish to help it stick.  Drizzle over the remaining oil.
Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, and serve with freshly steamed green vegetables.

Tip
This is also nice served with mashed potato or rice.
