Step cooking
- Take 400 g of pink salmon fillet. If the fish is frozen, first let it thaw. Rinse the fillet thoroughly under running water, then pat dry with paper towels. Place the washed and dried fillet on a plate and cut into medium-sized pieces.
- Melt 10 g of coconut oil in a preheated pan. If desired, it can be replaced with any other vegetable fat.
- Place the pink salmon fillet in a pan with butter and fry them for about 7 minutes on each side. Cover the pan with a lid while frying.
- Pour 200 ml of cream with 20% fat into a fish pan. Bring the cream to a boil over high heat, then simmer the dish for about 7 minutes, reducing the heat to a slow.
- Put 20 g of butter in a pan and stir with a spatula until it is completely dissolved in the cream.
- Next, add 20 g of flour, carefully and quickly mix everything with a spatula until you get a uniform sauce.
- Salt and pepper pink salmon in a creamy sauce to your taste. Add your favorite fish spices if you wish. Mix the sauce thoroughly again. After you have added and mixed all the ingredients, leave the dish to simmer in a pan over low heat under a lid for about 2 more minutes.
- Take the finished slices of pink salmon fillet from the pan, put on plates with a side dish and serve hot.
Decoration methods and serving options
Pink salmon fillet in a creamy sauce, like many other fish dishes, is best served with mashed potatoes. Both the fish and the side dish should be hot. Put a portion of fish on one half of the plate, and a portion of boiled potato puree on the other. Top the dish with the cream sauce that you received during the cooking process.
Also, pink salmon with a side dish, if desired, can be decorated with chopped fresh herbs. Pieces of finished fish themselves can be laid out on lettuce leaves. Fresh vegetables, such as slices of cucumber, stripes of bell pepper or sweet green peas will also make the serving more vibrant and mouth-watering.
Many fish dishes are to taste in combination with bread, although it is replaced by a side dish of mashed potatoes. But just in case, serving guests sliced bread on a table in a separate dish will be useful.
