    Drain the cooked potatoes and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly crush them with a glass. Season the crushed potatoes with a little oil, salt, and pepper, and place them in a preheated oven. After about 20 minutes, the potatoes should be nice and crispy. Place the salmon on another baking sheet lined with parchment paper, sprinkle with capers and a little lemon zest. Bake at 200°C (390 °F ) for 10–12 minutes, until cooked through but still moist.

    Meanwhile, prepare the asparagus or broccoli. For the asparagus, trim the woody ends and sauté in a pan with a little olive oil or butter until lightly browned and tender. Season with salt and pepper. For the broccoli, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the broccoli for about 5–7 minutes.

    Arrange the potatoes, asparagus/broccoli, and salmon on a large plate. Garnish with fresh herbs and lemon slices. Optional: add additional green vegetables.
