Smoked Salmon And Potato Terrine With Veal Demi Glace Recipes

SMOKED SALMON TARTINES

Steps:

• Place the toasted bread on a cutting board and overlap slices of avocado on each piece of bread, using a quarter to half an avocado for each, depending on the sizes of the avocado and the bread.
• Sprinkle the avocado with lemon juice, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place one large slice of salmon on top, ribboning it to fit. Drizzle with a tablespoon of the Gravlax Sauce. Garnish with some red onion, sprinkle with the dill fronds, salt, and pepper, and serve with extra sauce on the side.
• Whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey mustard, whole-grain mustard, ground mustard, sugar, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Combine the olive and grapeseed oils in a small measuring cup. Slowly add the oil mixture to the mustard mixture, whisking constantly, until emulsified. Stir in the dill and salt.

POTATO GALETTE WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat; let solids sink to bottom. Skim foam. Carefully pour off clarified butter, discarding solids.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice potatoes a little less than 1/8 inch thick, and lay on a kitchen towel. Heat a large ovenproof skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons clarified butter; swirl to coat. Arrange some potatoes in concentric circles. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and some freshly ground pepper to coat. Repeat with remaining potatoes to form 2 more layers. Pour 3 tablespoons clarified butter down sides of skillet to seep under potatoes. Brush underside of a medium heavy skillet with remaining clarified butter; set over potatoes as a cover. Reduce heat to medium. Cook until underside is golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes more. Flip potatoes using 2 metal spatulas. Cover with skillet. Cook until potatoes start to brown, about 4 minutes. Remove top skillet. Bake until underside is crisp, 7 to 9 minutes.
• Remove galette from skillet; transfer to a wire rack. Let cool for 10 minutes. Beat cream cheese with creme fraiche until fluffy; spread over potatoes. Top with salmon. Sprinkle with chives. Cut into wedges.

POTATO GALETTES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, then cut them lengthwise in long matchsticks, using the finest julienne blade of a mandoline. Spread the potatoes out neatly in one layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, roll the towel up, and squeeze lightly to dry the potatoes without breaking them up. Put the potatoes into a bowl and toss them with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small (8-inch) omelet pan (a saute pan with sloped sides) over medium heat. Add half of the potatoes to the pan and press lightly with a large metal spatula to make the shreds lie flat. Cook them undisturbed for 5 minutes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the butter around the edge of the pan and cook the potatoes for another 3 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned on the bottom. Loosen the galette gently around the edge with the metal spatula and flip it over. (Be careful! The oil and butter underneath are very hot!) Add another tablespoon of butter around the edge and cook the galette for 4 to 5 minutes longer, until the second side is nicely browned. With the metal spatula, transfer the galette to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes and butter to make a second galette.
• Place the two galettes on a cutting board. Spread each galette with 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche and a layer of smoked salmon, covering the galette completely. Sprinkle with minced chives and sprinkle lightly with salt. Use a large chef's knife to cut each galette into 6 wedges and serve hot.

SMOKED SALMON TERRINE

Steps:

• Grease a loaf tin, a 900g/2lb one is ideal but you can use one slightly smaller or bigger. Line with cling film, then cover just the base with one layer of smoked salmon slices, trimmed to fit neatly.
• Whizz the cream cheese, cream, lemon zest and juice together in a food processor to combine. Scrape out and stir in the dill and chives with some seasoning. Spread an 8th of the cream cheese mixture over as evenly as you can. Top with a layer of salmon slices. Repeat with the cream cheese and salmon - you should be able to do 7 layers of cream cheese (By starting with just an 8th of the mixture, it means as the tin widens you'll have enough to put a bit more as you go further up creating even layers.) Finish with a last layer of salmon (and treat yourself to a smoked salmon sarnie with any trimmings!) Cover with cling film, pressing down gently, then chill overnight.
• To serve, turn onto a platter and gently peel off the cling film. Scatter with a few dill fronds and serve with lemon wedges and toast.

SMOKED SALMON AND POTATO TERRINE WITH VEAL DEMI-GLACE

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan, and fill with water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook uncovered until potatoes are very tender, about 25 minutes. Drain well, add olive oil and mash coarsely. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Have ready an empty 8-ounce can, with label, top and bottom removed, for use as a mold. Coat inside of can with cooking spray. Set can on a baking sheet, and arrange a single layer of salmon evenly across bottom of can. Top with a 1/2-inch-thick layer of potato. Tamp lightly with a spoon to eliminate air pockets, but do not pack down or the salmon layer will be obscured. Add another single layer of salmon, another layer of potato and then a third layer of each. Slowly slide can up to free it from terrine. Return can to baking sheet and repeat to make four terrines.
• Transfer baking sheet to oven, and bake until terrines are hot and lightly browned on top, about 8 minutes. While terrines are baking, place demi-glace in a saucepan over low heat. When demi-glace is warm, add truffle butter, and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and keep warm.
• To serve, drizzle demi-glace across each of four serving plates. Use a wide, stiff spatula to transfer a terrine to each plate. Serve immediately.
