Meet Theodora, a must try Austrian natural wine from @gutoggau, a biodynamic winery in the village of Oggau, near Neusiedlersee.🍷🇦🇹 Because each wine they produce has such a strong personality, Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe-Eselböck decided to personify all their wines and create a story around each member. 📍You can find the whole Gut Oggau collection at @weinskandal (my new favourite place in town). Fabulous discovery and fantastic wine, thanks @andershusa for the inspiration! ➡️ Swipe if you're curious to find out more about Theodora's personality! That description sounds just like myself! 🙈 63 7

How about some colourful and easy salmon lettuce wraps with Middle-Eastern flavours? They’re light and healthy and so tasty you’ll want to make them again the next day!

Easy Salmon Lettuce Wraps That will Make You Love Healthy Food

If you know me you know how constantly obsessed I am with Middle-Eastern flavours, and you know the extent to which I can brag about how great their cuisine is. It’s, obviously, the reason why I end up making a ton of dishes influenced by the Middle-East. And while salmon may not be a common ingredient there, it goes splendidly with za’atar and sumac.

This recipe is great for gourmands wish to cut down on carbs. I mean, who doesn’t love a wrap? It’s so practical, easy to eat, easy to pack, but all that wheat… And if you can’t live without that tortilla or pita bread, you can always just follow the same recipe and replace the gem lettuce leaves with your carb goods.

Wrap me in a lettuce leaf and let me go to sleep

When I built the recipe I thought it would be the perfect late dinner. Since my boyfriend’s in his last couple of months of his PhD, he quite often comes home really late, and that just pushes our dinner time constantly. However, little did I know that Max was actually going to show up at 1am the night I first made these. I gave up on dinner entirely, and obviously, when he came home from work in the middle of the night, I had already packed everything away, planning on enjoying the dish the next day. Not that either of us would have wanted to eat anything at that time of night.

My boyfriend had some of the wraps for lunch, so… not only did I cook this, but I also had to wait for a whole day (24h, that is) until I finally got to taste them!

I’m going to stop bragging about them right now. I believe the pictures speak for themselves and I don’t need to tell you about how delicious they were and how excited I am to make these again!

For the salmon
  1. 750g salmon fillets
  2. 2 tbsp za’atar
  3. 2 tbsp sumac
  4. 4-5 slices of orange (preferably blood orange)
  5. Salt
For the orange and date hummus
  1. 1 can of chickpeas
  2. 1 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 garlic clove
  4. 1 tbsp greek yogurt
  5. 5-6 dates, pitted
  6. Juice from 1/2 orange (preferably blood orange)
  7. 1 tbsp tahini
  8. 1 tsp sumac
  9. a pinch of salt
  10. Other ingredients
  11. 4 gem lettuce
  12. ½ cup of wild rice, cooked
  13. 1 handful of peeled orange (preferably blood orange)
  14. 1 large handful of cherry tomatoes, chopped
  15. 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses
  16. ½ red onion, finely chopped
  17. 1 tsp sumac
  18. salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven at 180ºC. Place the salmon in an ovenproof dish, on parchment paper (this way it won’t stick and you won’t have to add extra oil to the salmon). Sprinkle the spices and salt, and add the orange slices on top. Cover the dish with aluminium foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the aluminium foil, then bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  2. While waiting for the salmon to be done, prepare the rest. For the hummus simply add all the ingredients to a blender and purée until you obtain a fine paste.
  3. Put the outer, lerge leaves of the gem lettuce on the side – they will be your wraps. Use the centre to chop finely and turn into a salad. Add the orange pieces, tomatoes, onion, pomegranate molasses and sumac and mix well.
  4. When everything is ready, fill your gem lettuce wraps with a bit of wild rice, salad and finally, pieces of salmon.
