What to do:
pickled red onions
Bring 2-3 cups water to boil in a kettle. Add the sugar, salt, vinegar, garlic, peppercorns and all spice to a large glass jar. Seal and shake vigorously to dissolve. Place the sliced onions in a colander in the sink. Pour the boiling water over the onions and let drain. Transfer the par-boiled onions to the jar, seal and shake. Let sit for minimum 1 hour, but best after 24 hours.
lemon-dill dressing
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a glass jar. Seal and shake well to combine.
Toss the diced potatoes with 1/2 T olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet for 30 minutes.
While the potatoes are roasting, sauté the leeks over medium heat with 1/2 T olive oil, salt and pepper for 5-8 minutes, until they begin to brown. Set aside.
Warm a cast iron skillet with 1/2 T grapeseed oil over high heat. Once hot, add the salmon flesh side down (it should begin to sizzle and splash oil, so be careful). Sear for 1-2 minutes, depending on the thickness of the piece. Gently flip each piece (skin side down) and transfer to the hot oven for 5 minutes.
To serve, combine everything in a low bowl and top with a generous portion of dressing.
