Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in butter or lard until mixture is an even crumbly texture. Add cold water a tablespoon at a time and mix until dough comes together.
- Shape the dough into a disc, wrap, and chill in the refrigerator. While pastry is chilling, prepare filling.
- Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut into chunks and boil in a medium size pot of water until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, mash the potatoes, and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and sauté until they are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the 1/2-cup of water to the skillet.
- Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper, and place it into the skillet skin side down.
- Spoon liquid and onions over the salmon, cover the skillet, and cook until the salmon is opaque, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the salmon cool slightly.
- Remove the skin and break the salmon into pieces. Add the salmon, onions, and poaching liquid to the mashed potatoes and mix to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half and form two balls. Flatten one ball with your hands, and roll dough to about 12-inches in diameter, to fit a 9-inch pie pan.
- Place the pastry into the pie plate and add the salmon pie filling. Gently pat the filling down to remove any air spaces.
- Brush around the outer edge of the pastry with the beaten egg. Roll out the top pastry and place on top of the pie filling.
- Fold the top crust under the bottom crust and pinch the edges. Brush with egg wash and cut vent holes.
- Bake the salmon pie in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. While the salmon pie is baking, make the dill béchamel sauce.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Gradually add milk stirring constantly. When sauce begins to thicken, add the lemon juice, dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 2 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.
- Remove the pie from oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Cut into pie wedges, drizzle with the dill sauce if desired, and serve warm.
- Yield: Makes 1 pie, about 8 servings.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Season the salmon with salt and white pepper. In a saute pan, add the court bouillon and bring to a simmer. Add the salmon and poach for 6 to 8 minutes. Allow the salmon to cool in the water until tepid. Remove the salmon from the pan and discard the liquid. Flake the salmon into a mixing bowl.
- In another saute pan, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Season the onions with salt and white pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the garlic and dill. Add the sauteed mixture to the salmon. Mix thoroughly. Add the potatoes, egg, and cream. Mix well. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
- Cut the pie dough into 2 halves. Lightly dust the surface with flour. Roll out each half of dough to 12-inches in diameter and about 1/8-inch thick. Fold 1 circle of dough into fourths. Carefully lift the dough and place in a 10-inch deep-dish pie pan. Unfold the pie dough and spoon the salmon mixture into the pie shell. Place the second round of dough over the salmon mixture. Using a sharp knife, cut away the excess dough. Using your fingers, crimp the edges of the pie firmly to seal the dough completely. Bake the pie for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Combine the flour and salt in a bowl. Add the lard and work it in with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, working it in with your hands. Add only as much as you need to make a smooth ball of dough. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using.

Steps:
- For the salmon cakes: Drain the salmon, place it in a large bowl and flake the flesh with a fork. You should have about 2 cups. Add the onion, mayonnaise, breadcrumbs and mustard. Gently fold until well mixed, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Shape into six 1-inch-thick patties, each about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Heat a thin layer of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook, turning once, until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Cover and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes longer. Keep hot.
- For the hollandaise sauce: Microwave the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted and very hot, at least 30 to 40 seconds. In a blender or in the cup of an immersion blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice and mustard. Blend until the yolks are smooth and whipped.
- With the blender running, slowly pour in the hot butter. Season the sauce with the cayenne and salt to taste. Keep warm until ready to use.
- For assembly: Pour 2 inches of water into a large skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Crack each egg into a small cup or bowl and gently tip it into the simmering water. Cook for 2 minutes, then turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water until the whites are set and the yolks just begin to firm, about 8 minutes. Remove each egg with a slotted spoon and allow to drain in the spoon over a paper towel to remove any excess water.
- Place a hot salmon cake in the center of a plate, then top with a poached egg. Pour a generous tablespoon or two of warm hollandaise sauce over the egg, then sprinkle with the fresh chives and garnish each plate with a lemon wedge. Repeat with the remaining salmon cakes. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh salmon fillets. If using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
- To ensure that the salmon is cooked through, bake the pie for at least 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the salmon reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Serve the salmon pie hot, with a side of egg sauce. You can also garnish the pie with fresh herbs, such as dill or parsley.
- To make a vegetarian version of this pie, replace the salmon with cooked vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or carrots.
- If you don't have any puff pastry on hand, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead.
Conclusion:
This classic salmon pie with egg sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The flaky puff pastry crust, creamy egg sauce, and tender salmon filling are a combination that is sure to please everyone at the table.
