Best 9 Saucy Salmon Fennel And Potato Gratin Dauphinoise Recipes

FENNEL DAUPHINOISE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put potatoes, fennel, and garlic in a medium non-stick pan. Pour in milk and double cream, season well and simmer gently, covered, for 10 mins, stirring halfway through, until potatoes are just tender.
• Divide the mixture between 2 small (about 150ml) buttered ramekins and scatter with parmesan. Bake for 40 mins until the potatoes are golden and tender when pierced with a knife. Snip the reserved fennel fronds over before serving.

SAUCY SALMON, FENNEL AND POTATO GRATIN DAUPHINOISE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 180C/350°F.
• Grease a large and preferably oval or rectangular oven dish (Gratin dish) with half of the butter.
• Layer half of the potatoes on the bottom of the dish, then arrange half of the fennel slices and half of the onion slices over the top. Season well with black pepper and some salt to taste.
• Carefully lay the salmon fillets over the top and continue with the onion, fennel and potato slices in that order - ending with the potatoes.
• Dot with the remaining butter and pour the creme fraiche or milk/cream mixture over the top.
• Season with black pepper and salt.
• Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours in a pre-heated oven, until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are soft when tested.
• Serve hot with lemon wedges and the green tops of the fennel bulb; crusty bread and salad would be lovely accompaniments.

GRATIN DAUPHINOIS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bring 2 cups of the heavy cream to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Add the potatoes, salt and pepper and cook for 3 minutes.
• Rub the cut side of the garlic clove on the bottom and sides of an 8-inch casserole or baking dish. Add the potatoes and cream and top with the remaining cream and Gruyere cheese. Sprinkle chives over top, if using. Bake on a baking sheet until potatoes are tender and cheese is golden brown and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

CLASSIC BISTRO POTATO GRATIN DAUPHINOISE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter a 2 quart flame proof casserole or gratin dish.
• Peel the potatoes and hold them in cold water until ready to proceed with the recipe.
• Combine the garlic, cream, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Dry the potatoes fully and cut them into rounds, beginning at one end, using a mandoline. Set the blade on the mandoline to cut a thin, 1/8-inch thick, slice. Place the potato slices into the gratin dish carefully layering them in a circular fashion. Pour the seasoned cream over the potatoes and shake the dish gently to allow the cream to flow towards the bottom of the dish.
• Place the gratin dish on the stovetop over low heat and begin to warm the contents until the cream has begun to simmer. Cook the potatoes in the seasoned cream for 5 minutes and then place the gratin dish into the oven.
• Bake the potatoes for 45 to 60 minutes until the top has browned to a rich golden color and the cream is bubbling along the side of the dish.
• Remove the gratin from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

POTATOES DAUPHINOISE

Steps:

• Variation: This recipe also works well with orange sweet potato (kumera).
• If using sweet potato, try substituting the nutmeg with a generous sprinkling of caraway seeds over each layer.
• Yum!
• Grease a 6 cup capacity ovenproof dish generously with the butter or margarine then smear the garlic around the bottom and sides of the dish.
• (I use a round glass pyrex dish.) Peel potatoes and slice thinly into rounds.
• (I use the slicing blade of my food processor).
• Line the bottom of the dish with a single layer of overlapping potato slices.
• Sprinkle generously with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
• Repeat this layering and sprinkling process until you have used all of the potato slices.
• In a large jug, combine cream and milk and stir well.
• Pour this mixture over the potato slices, gently easing the potato away from the sides of the dish to allow the liquid to penetrate evenly.
• Place the dish onto a microwave safe plate and cook, uncovered, in a microwave on MEDIUM HIGH for 15- 20 minutes.
• Check occasionally.
• If the liquid in the potatoes boils over, simply pour it from the plate back into the dish and continue cooking.
• Microwave just until you can push the blade of a sharp knife through the potato layers without feeling any crunchy resistance.
• Having reached this stage you can go on to cook the dish in the oven or cover with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator for several hours or more before cooking.
• Pre-set your oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Sprinkle the top of the potatoes with the grated cheese and place the dish on an upper shelf in the oven for 20 minutes or until the top turns golden brown.
• (This may take slightly longer if taking the dish straight from the refrigerator.) To serve, cut into wedges and remove each wedge carefully with a spatula.

GRILLED SALMON WITH FENNEL SALAD (SAUMON GRILLE ET SALADE DE FENOUIL)

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill to high.
• Cut the salmon fillet crosswise into four rectangular pieces weighing a half pound each. Place the pieces in a bowl and add two tablespoons of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Let stand until ready to cook.
• Put the sliced fennel, chopped walnuts, half the chives and tomatoes in a mixing bowl.
• Combine the lemon juice, walnut oil, salt and pepper to taste in another small bowl and blend well. Pour this over the fennel mixture and toss to blend.
• Place the salmon pieces on the grill and cook seven minutes, turning the pieces once or twice.
• Scatter the salad on an oval serving dish and arrange the grilled salmon pieces neatly on top. Garnish each piece of salmon with three walnut meats. Sprinkle with the remaining chives and the vinegar.

MADAME LARACINE'S GRATIN DAUPHINOIS (MADAME LARACINE'S POTATO GRATIN)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with the milk and water. Add the garlic, salt and bay leaves and, with the pan partially covered, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally so that the potatoes do not stick to the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring from time to time, until the potatoes are tender but not falling apart, about 10 minutes.
• Using a large, flat strainer, transfer half the potatoes to an eight-cup gratin dish. Sprinkle with nutmeg, pepper, half the cream and half the cheese. Cover with the remaining potatoes and sprinkle again with pepper, nutmeg and the remaining cream and cheese. (Discard the milk, water and herbs in which the potatoes were cooked.)
• Bake until the gratin is crisp and golden on top, about one hour. Serve immediately.

BAKED SALMON WITH FENNEL & TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Trim the fronds from the fennel and set aside. Cut the fennel bulbs in half, then cut each half into 3 wedges. Cook in boiling salted water for 10 mins, then drain well. Chop the fennel fronds roughly, then mix with the parsley and lemon zest.
• Spread the drained fennel over a shallow ovenproof dish, then add the tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil, then bake for 10 mins. Nestle the salmon among the veg, sprinkle with lemon juice, then bake 15 mins more until the fish is just cooked. Scatter over the parsley and serve.

WILD SALMON WITH FENNEL AND PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Trim any fronds from the fennel and chop 3 tablespoons of them and set aside. Thinly slice the fennel bulbs, discarding the cores. Select a baking dish or heavy skillet, which can go on top of the stove, to fit the salmon. Place it in the oven, add 1 tablespoon of the butter and when the butter has melted after a minute or so, scatter the fennel bulbs in the pan, turning it with tongs to coat with butter. Return pan to the oven for 10 minutes.
• Place the salmon, skin side down, in the baking dish on top of the fennel, season with salt and pepper and dot with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter. Return the pan to the oven. Reduce the heat to 225 degrees. Let bake 15 minutes for rare, 20 minutes for medium-rare. Turn off oven.
• When the salmon is done, transfer it to an oven-proof serving platter and surround with the cooked fennel. Tent with foil. Place in the turned-off oven with the door slightly ajar to keep warm.
• Place the baking pan on top of the stove on medium-high heat. Add the pistachios and give them a quick stir. Add the lemon juice and wine and bring to a lively simmer. Reduce the liquid to about 1/3 cup. Lower heat and whisk in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter bit by bit. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, remove the fish and fennel from the oven and spoon the sauce over the fish. Strew the reserved fennel fronds over top and serve.
