Simple poached fillet of salmon

OK, let’s face it, peeling broad beans may not seem like fun, but peeling a broad bean lifts it from an ordinary bean to a bright-green delectable jewel. You can buy them peeled in some shops, but if not, you can cook ahead and peel them at your leisure listening to the radio or watching TV – we have always done it as a family. If this does not excite you, try this super-simple recipe with French beans instead. Serve freshly poached fish with no fear.
