Ottolenghi's BJ Salmon Crostini

Ottolenghi, Bridget Jones, and salmon. These are three of my favourite things.

Therefore, when I read Ottolenghi's recipe in 'Simple', titled "Bridget Jones's pan-fried salmon with pine nut salsa", well I had to give it a go. I stayed (fairly) true to his salsa (replacing his main ingredient with almonds), went smoked with the salmon instead of fresh, and the only real difference was replacing the gleaming white plate with a crostino.

2. Toast your crostini and rub with raw garlic.

3. Spoon on your salsa.
