Salmon In Pastry With Champagne Sauce Recipes

SALMON IN CHAMPAGNE SAUCE

Steps:

• First of all, smear a little butter over the base of the frying pan, then arrange the fillets in it. Now slowly pour the Champagne over the salmon (it will foam quite a lot, but not to worry), then bring it to a simmer over a medium heat. Now spoon the Champagne over the top of the fillets before putting the lid on. Then gently poach the salmon for about 8-10 minutes. The tip of a knife inserted into the thickest part will show if it is cooked when you just ease the flesh back. While the salmon is poaching, melt the butter in a medium saucepan and cook the shallots in it over a gentle heat for 5-6 minutes, until softened and golden but not browned. When the salmon is cooked, carefully lift the fillets on to a warmed dish, cover them with foil and keep warm. Next, add the flour to the buttery shallot juices, stir it in and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Now gradually add the salmon poaching liquid to the pan, a little at a time, then blend in the double cream, whisking until the sauce is smooth. Let it come to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, then taste and add some seasoning. Serve the salmon fillets on warmed plates with a little of the sauce spooned over and a teaspoon of keta and a sprig of dill on top, and hand the rest of the sauce round in a warmed jug. I think steamed Anya potatoes tossed in butter and chives are a nice accompaniment, perhaps with fresh, shelled peas, or a green salad with plenty of cucumber and a lemony dressing.

PUFF PASTRY SALMON (SALMON WELLINGTON) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• In a pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add the garlic and onions, cooking until translucent.
• Add the spinach, salt, and pepper, cooking until spinach is wilted.
• Add the breadcrumbs, cream cheese, parmesan, and dill, stirring until mixture is evenly combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
• On a cutting board, smooth out the sheet of puff pastry. Place the salmon in the middle of the pastry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Place several spoonfuls of the spinach mixture on top of the salmon, smoothing it out so that it does not spill over the sides.
• Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the salmon and spinach, starting with the longer sides and then the shorter ends. Trim any excess pastry from the ends, then fold the ends on top. Flip the puff pastry-wrapped salmon over and transfer for a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Brush the beaten egg on the top and sides of the pastry. Score the top of the pastry with a knife, cutting shallow diagonal lines to create a crosshatch pattern.
• Brush the top again with the egg wash.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until pastry is golden brown.
• Slice, then serve!
• Enjoy!

SALMON IN PASTRY WITH CHAMPAGNE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small, deep bowl, blend together the butter, tarragon, a half teaspoon of salt, four grinds of the pepper mill and the lemon juice.
• Cut the salmon into four serving pieces. Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into the side of each piece, trying to make the cut as deep as possible without cutting through the other side. Divide the tarragon butter into four portions and stuff into the fish.
• Roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of about an eighth of an inch. Divide into four squares and brush lightly with cold water. Lay each piece of fish on top and roll the pastry over to cover, pressing down to seal, then trim away the excess. Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet with a rim and brush the pastry with the beaten egg. Chill at least half an hour.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Start the sauce by combining the stock, Champagne, shallots and mushrooms in a saucepan. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half. Add a half cup of the cream and cook until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Strain, then keep warm. Whisk the remaining cream in a deep bowl until it starts to thicken.
• Bake the salmon for 12 minutes or until the pastry is lightly browned. Transfer each packet to a warm serving plate and slice into four or five pieces on a slight diagonal. Add the fines herbes to the sauce, whisk in the whipped cream and spoon alongside the packets.
