Green Coriander Mayonnaise Recipes

COLD POACHED SALMON WITH GREEN CORIANDER MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• If you do not have a fish poacher or large pan, cut the salmon into 2 or 3 pieces, and place in a pan large enough to hold the pieces without folding. Pour in the wine and stock, adding water if necessary to cover the fish. Place parchment or a double thickness of wax paper on top of the fish. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook according to the Canadian rule: measure the fish at its thickest point, and cook 8 minutes to the inch.
• Remove from the heat, uncover, and allow the fish to cool in the liquid. Remove the fish, discard the skin, then cover the fish with plastic wrap, and chill, overnight if desired. Serve with green coriander mayonnaise.

GREEN CORIANDER MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Bring enough water to a boil to cover the spinach and parsley, and blanch them for 5 seconds. Drain, and run under cold water; squeeze dry in a dish towel.
• In a food processor with the motor running, put the garlic through the feed tube, and mince. Add the spinach, parsley and cilantro, and process to chop. Add the coriander, lemon juice, mayonnaise and yogurt, and process until the greens are well blended and the mayonnaise is a bright green. Season with salt. Chill at least a couple of hours or overnight. Use about 2 tablespoons for each serving of salmon.

SPICED EGG & CORIANDER MAYONNAISE VOL-AU-VENT FILLING

Steps:

• Put the eggs in a bowl and roughly crush into small pieces with a fork. Mix in the mayonnaise, curry powder, spring onions, coriander, lemon juice and some seasoning. Chill until ready to use.
• Divide between 10 vol-au-vent cases, sprinkle with coriander leaves and top with a small dollop of mango chutney.

SPICED PRAWNS WITH CORIANDER MAYO

Steps:

• Mix the breadcrumbs, chilli powder, cumin, crushed chillies, if using, and lime zest with ½ tsp salt and lots of black pepper. Spread over a plate. Toss the prawns in the flour, then dip them into the egg and then into the crumbs. Shake off excess crumbs. Can be chilled in one layer for up to one day ahead.
• When ready to cook, heat a few centimetres of oil in a large, deep frying pan. The oil is hot enough when a few crumbs tipped into it sizzle and turn brown. Fry the prawns in batches for 2 mins, turning halfway, until the crumbs are crisp and golden all over. Lift them onto kitchen paper to drain (they will keep in a low oven for 15 mins if necessary), then serve on a warm plate, with lime wedges scattered around. Mix the lime juice and coriander into the mayonnaise and serve alongside.
