Ingredients

  • ½ head of broccoli, roughly chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, roughly chopped
  • ¼ trimmed leek, cleaned and sliced
  • Pinch each of chopped fresh rosemary, chili powder, and curry powder
  • Cayenne pepper to taste (optional)
  • 4 ounces wild-caught salmon
  • ¼ avocado, sliced
  • Cilantro, sliced green onions, and sliced watermelon radishes to taste
  • 1-2 tbsp Brain Octane Oil
  • Cooked and cooled white rice (optional), seasoned with ground turmeric to taste

Instructions

  • Cook salmon using your favorite method (poaching is recommended).
  • While salmon cooks, prepare broccoli leek base. Season a pot of water generously with salt and bring to a boil. Add broccoli, celery, and leeks and boil for 10 minutes, or until soft.
  • Drain veggies and reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
  • Transfer veggies to a blender and blend until fully pureed, adding a tablespoon of cooking water at a time until it reaches a veggie mash consistency. (You can also do this in your cooking pot with an immersion blender.) Add rosemary, chili powder, curry powder, and cayenne (if using), and mix well.
  • Add broccoli leek base to a bowl and top with rice, cooked salmon, avocado, and remaining veggies. Drizzle with Brain Octane Oil and serve warm.
