Salmon Surprise image

Its a surprisingly delicious way of serving salmon, a surprise because when I first made it, I just put things in first and - then had to remember what I had done! Its a reasonably healthy dish too being a mixture of freshly cooked salmon, tomatoes etc. wrapped in puff pastry It serves a whole bunch of friends - either as a hot meal and wonderful at a buffet as you can prepare it well ahead of time and serve it cold.

I found this dish to be a bit too salty. The salmon was cooked well, but the sauce was a bit too salty. I would recommend using less salt next time.

I found this dish to be a bit bland. The salmon was cooked well, but the sauce lacked flavor. I would recommend adding more herbs and spices to the sauce next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The salmon was cooked well, but the sauce was a bit too heavy. I would recommend using a lighter sauce next time.
