Cook extra: Make extra portion(s) of the whole recipe. Flake the salmon and combine with the mushy peas and sunblush tomato ketchup (without the oil) for a wrap or sandwich. For a creamy touch, add a little mayonnaise, yoghurt, soured cream or crème fraîche. Or, to make a salad, flake the salmon and mix it with the peas, some warm simmered potatoes, the sunblush tomato ketchup and mayonnaise.
