Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ medium onion, chopped
5 oz fresh spinach
1 teaspoon salt, for spinach
1 teaspoon pepper, for spinach
⅓ cup breadcrumb
4 oz cream cheese
¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 sheet puff pastry, softened to room temperature
1 salmon fillet
1 teaspoon salt, for salmon
1 teaspoon pepper, for salmon
1 egg, beaten

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!

PUFF PASTRY-WRAPPED SALMON



Puff Pastry-Wrapped Salmon image

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the foil
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 medium shallots, finely chopped
9 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick slices
5 ounces baby spinach leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for rolling out the pastry
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 large egg, beaten
One 2-pound side of salmon fillet, skinless
2/3 cup clam juice
3/4 cup Mexican crema
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons minced fresh dill
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until the liquid evaporates, about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and wilt for 4 minutes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Let cool.
  • Dust a flat working surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll out the sheets of puff pastry into 1/4-inch thickness (each 12 by 12 inches). Put the pastry sheets side-by-side so they overlap slightly, by about 1/2 inch. Brush the overlapping strip with the beaten egg, stick both sheets together at the strip and seal with a fork. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Spoon the cooled mushroom-spinach mixture over one side of the puff pastry rectangle. To make an even rectangle out of the salmon fillet, you can cut the top portion off of the belly and add it to the tail part. Place the fillet over the mushroom-spinach mixture. Season the salmon heavily with salt and pepper. Fold the other side of the rectangle over the filling and seal by brushing the edge with egg wash and crimping as you would a pie crust (you can use a fork; I crimped like a pie crust with my fingers). Fold the remaining 2 open edges of pastry under the salmon fillet. Brush everything with the egg wash.
  • Bake until the puff pastry is crisp and golden in color, 25 minutes. Let stand for about 8 minutes before slicing.
  • For the dill sauce: Put the clam juice in a heavy saucepot and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and reduce to 1/2 cup. Add the Mexican crema and heavy cream and reduce to 1 cup. Add the flour and whisk while boiling until thickened. Add the dill and season with salt and pepper.
  • Slice the salmon into 1 1/4 to 1 1/2-inch slices. Serve immediately with the dill sauce.

NEXT LEVEL SALMON EN CROûTE



Next level salmon en croûte image

Take salmon en croûte to chef standard. Succulent salmon, cream cheese and dill are encased in crisp puff pastry with a pickled cucumber side

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 15

50g flaky sea salt
25g demerara sugar
2 x 500g skinless, boneless salmon fillets
75g watercress, chopped
200g cream cheese
2 tbsp fresh dill sprigs, chopped
1 lemon, zested and juiced
pinch smoked salt (optional)
500g block all-butter puff pastry
flour, for dusting
2 eggs, yolks only, beaten
1 cucumber, peeled, halved, deseeded and sliced
1 red onion, finely sliced
100ml cider vinegar
1 tbsp sugar

Steps:

  • The day before you want to assemble the en croûte, mix the salt and sugar in a bowl. Scatter half of the mix over a tray, then lay one of the salmon fillets on top, skinned-side down, and scatter with more of the salt mix. Lay the second fillet on top, skinned-side up, and sprinkle over the rest of the salt mix. Cover, then place another tray on top. Weigh the tray down with a couple of tins and put in the fridge for up to 48 hrs, or for at least 12 hrs (the longer you leave it, the firmer the salmon will be).
  • When you're ready to assemble the en croûte, unwrap the salmon fillets, rinse them in cold water and dry with kitchen paper, then set aside. Put the watercress, cream cheese, dill, lemon zest and juice, smoked salt (if using) and a generous grinding of pepper into a bowl and mix well, then set aside.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment. Roll out half of the pastry on a lightly floured surface so it's 2.5cm larger in diameter than the salmon fillet, then drape it over the lined baking tray. Place one of the fillets on the pastry, skinned-side down, and spread with the cream cheese mix, then lay the second fillet on top, skinned-side up. Brush the edge of the pastry with a little of the beaten yolk. Roll out the rest of the pastry to fit, then drape it over the salmon and tuck it in at the sides. Trim the edges and crimp or press with a fork to seal. Brush with more beaten yolk, then put the en croûte in the fridge for 30 mins before using a spoon to create a scale-like effect along the top of the pastry. Chill for up to 24 hrs or for at least another 30 mins.
  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Bake for 20 mins, then glaze with the remaining yolk. Lower the heat to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and bake for 20 mins more, then remove and leave to stand for 10 mins.
  • To make the pickle, put the cucumber and onion in a bowl. Tip the vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt into a pan and bring to the boil. Once the sugar has dissolved, pour over the veg, toss well and set aside. Can be made up to two days ahead and kept in the fridge. Slice the en croûte into six portions and serve with the pickled veg on the side.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will make the cooking process much smoother and easier.
  • Choose the right salmon: For this recipe, it is best to use a salmon fillet that is about 1 pound in weight. Look for a fillet that is firm and has a bright pink color.
  • Season the salmon well: Before wrapping the salmon in pastry, season it generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Use a good quality puff pastry: The puff pastry is what will give the salmon its crispy and flaky crust. Make sure to use a good quality puff pastry that is made with all-butter.
  • Chill the salmon before baking: Before baking the salmon, chill it for at least 30 minutes. This will help to keep the pastry from becoming too soggy.
  • Bake the salmon until it is cooked through: The salmon is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the temperature of the salmon by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the fish.
