Before I start trawling through the recipe books, could does anybody have a suggestion for a salmon dish.

The OH has been helping me out with a number of things over the past few weeks and I would like to show my appreciation by whipping up a nice meal.

In the fridge there are some salmon fillets and I want to cook something a but different to a quicky salmon pasta which is what I'd normally do in this situation.

Any ideas?

Salmon encroute...

Really easy to make and looks impressive.

If interested can give you a gist of the recipe.

Salmon, pesto and breadcrumbs...

Add some veggy on the side? Brighter the colour the better.

salmon wrap

get a piece of foil and oil it
place salmon fillet in the middle
add;

- chopped shallots, garlic and chilli
- chopped veg (mange tout, peppers, carrots, etc)

wrap up but leave plenty of room so it steams

bung in oven for 20 mins at 200 deg

serve with sticky rice

peasy

Thanks for the suggestions guys, although the OH hates salmon en croute.

Perhaps I should have elaborated, I am temporarily house bound and we have now foil in the house! I have a full spice rack, oils etc but not much else.

Should I admit defeat and just get something delivered and crack open a bottle of champers?

Could you poach it in a little white wine and a bayleaf?

light curry sauce (A l'inde as the french call it) - blitz onions a clove of garlic until pasty. Fry, stirring in some curry powder (or home ground spices if you have them). Stir in some cream or creme fraiche.

poach the salmon, pour over sauce. serve with veg and rice.

alternate take on the same flavour: rub the salmon with tandoori spices / spice mix and grill. serve with raitha, rice, veg.
