Salmon En Croute Preparation
Ask your fishmonger to fillet a 2 1/2 salmon and keep the bones and trimming for the lemon cream sauce. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. Put the white fish, breacrumbs, lemon juice and rind, chives, parsley, egg and oil in a food processor. Whizz until smooth, then season to taste. Roll out the pastry to a long, oval shape 6 inches longer than the salmon and 2 1/2 times as wide. Place a fillet in the centre of the pastry, spread over the white fish paste and sandwich with the other fillet. Cut diagonal lines along each side of the puff pastry about 1/2 inch apart, leaving 3 inches at each end uncut. Bring the sides together, criss-cross the cut strips over each other and secure them with beaten egg. Fold one end into a triangle to make the shape of a fish head and cut a wedge from the other end to make the shape of a tail Lift fish on to a greased baking tray. Brush pastry with beaten egg and bake for 35-40 minutes. The fish is ready when a skewer inserted between the plaits comes out clean. Serve on its own or with Cucumber Sauce (barry) or Lemon Cream Sauce (barry) . From Gemini”s MASSIVE MealMaster collection
