This recipe is a combination of a fantastic salad from Canton Arms, a gastropub in London, and a recipe I read in a French food magazine on an airplane. Beets and salmon are roasted together with olive oil and a bed of fresh thyme, all topped with simply toasted rosemary panko breadcrumbs. More
I am not a baker. I almost always screw something up, leaving my kitchen disheveled and covered in a sticky coating of flour. But while these may not be the prettiest turnovers to ever emerge from an oven, even I have to admit that they were remarkably easy to construct. What else should expect from Real Simple magazine?
