- 3 tsp salt
-salt and pepper to taste
- dill (garnish)

Method:

-Wash and peel the potatoes and carrots.
- Chop the carrots, potatoes, and onions into bite size chunks.
- Add the vegetables, bay leaf, 3 tsp salt, and water to a pot.
- Boil on medium heat for about 20 minutes or until carrots and potatoes are tender.
- Turn heat to low. 
- Make sure all the bones are out of your salmon filee.
- Slice the salmon filee into bite size chunks and add to pot. (It will take about 5 minutes for the salmon to cook through.)
