Fresh Red Salmon Parcels in Filo Topped with Chive Cream

Posted 2015-09-17 by finyfollow

Salmon can be cooked in many different ways, and this recipe wraps it in a thin sheet of filo pastry with spices and spinach on top of the fish.

It is not a difficult recipe (apart from separating one sheet of filo), but the result is quite exotic and very tasty.



Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Makes: 2 servings

Ingredients
1 piece salmon (about 240 g), without skin
½ tbs mint (I used dried mint as mine in the garden had been eaten by snails)
1 small garlic clove, crushed
¼ tsp turmeric
¼ tsp chili flakes (I used hot ones)
1 sheet filo pastry
40 g frozen spinach, thawed
2 tbsp sour cream
1 tbsp garlic chives (or ordinary chives)
Oil spray
Extra chives to garnish (optional)
Broccolini, to serve (optional)
Tomato/parsley salad, to serve (optional)

Method
  • Preheat the oven to 160° fan forced.

  • Mix the mint, turmeric, chili, and garlic in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper.



  • Put the filo sheet on a flat surface and cut in half. Spray with oil, and place half the salmon on each piece of pastry.
  • Add the spice mixture.



  • Add the spinach, which needs to have all the liquid removed first. Spray with oil.



  • Carefully fold each parcel up to enclose the salmon.



  • This can be whatever shape you chose and mine were definitely not even.
  • Spray outside with a bit more oil, and place on a baking tray, lined with baking paper.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden.



  • Meanwhile, make the salad, and the broccolini just before the salmon is ready.



  • Mix the sour cream and chives in a bowl.



  • Serve the filo parcels and broccolini, topped with the sour cream and garnish with extra chives.
