When buying or preparing the salmon make sure it is scaled and pin boned, then cut into even portions.

Trim the turnip by peeling then cutting up into big chunks. Cook in salted boiling water.

Pick and wash the spinach leaves. Fry quickly in a hot pan and season.

Clean the girolles by cleaning the stem of the mushrooms.

If they are big you can cut down slightly.
