1 To make the vinaigrett­e, put raspberrie­s, vinegar, sugar and mustard in a small saucepan.

Bring to the boil over a high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until berries have broken down and mixture thickens slightly. Set aside to cool slightly.

If desired, thin vinaigrett­e with a little water. 2 Preheat grill on medium. Spray salmon with cooking spray. Add salmon to grill. Season with pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until just cooked. Transfer to plate. 3 To serve, combine spinach leaves and half the vinaigrett­e in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Divide between serving plates.

Top with salmon, raspberrie­s, feta and walnuts. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrett­e. Sprinkle with extra lemon zest, if using.
