Method
-
1
Heat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Slice the white and pale green parts of the leek, rinse out any grit and drain. Trim the sugar snap peas.
-
2
Split the vegetables between two big sheets of foil. Place a salmon fillet on each pile, sprinkle with salt, spread with Dijon, dot with butter and cover with thin lemon slices.
-
3
Fold the foil into sealed packets with a little air space above the fish. Bake on a rimmed sheet 12–18 minutes, until the thickest part of the salmon reaches 63°C (145°F) or flakes easily.

Open the packets carefully, away from your face, and spoon the lemony juices over the fish and vegetables.
