Salmon With Asparagus Tomato Mustard Pine Nut Hollandaise Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat for a couple minutes.
• Salt the boiling water, add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and reserve on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add the salmon skin-side up to the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook skin-side down until the skin is crisped and salmon is cooked just past medium-rare, about 6 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the hollandaise sauce: Bring a couple inches of water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Whisk together the egg yolks, mustard, cayenne, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon each of the herbs in a medium metal bowl. Set the bowl over the simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk until the hollandaise has thickened, about 2 minutes. You can move the saucepan on and off the heat to regulate the temperature, so the eggs don't cook too quickly.
• When the mixture is hot and thickened, gradually add the butter in several batches and whisk after each addition until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Add sea salt and white pepper to taste.
• Place the salmon fillets and asparagus on individual serving plates and spoon the hollandaise over the top. Garnish with the remaining minced herbs and serve.

Steps:

• Find a high-sided pan large enough to accommodate both salmon fillets side-by-side, without too much excess room; a small skillet or medium-sized saucepan should do. Pour lemon juice and olive oil into the pan, along with enough water to bring the water level up to 3/4-inch. Season the water to taste with salt and pepper, then add the salmon. Pour in enough water to just cover the salmon.
• Place the salmon over medium-high heat, and heat until the water is hot and steaming, but not simmering (165 degrees F (75 degrees C)); reduce heat if needed to keep the water at the proper temperature. Poach until the salmon turns opaque, and is firm to the touch; or to an internal temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Proceed making the Hollandaise sauce while the salmon is poaching.
• Pour a few inches of water into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn heat to medium-high and maintain water at a gentle boil. Place the egg yolks in a metal bowl, and whisk in hot water. Place the bowl over, but not touching, the boiling water. Whisk constantly until the yolks thicken, turn a light, opaque yellow, and double in volume. You may need to remove the bowl from the boiling water from time to time in order to keep from scrambling the yolks.
• When the yolks have thickened and increased in volume, begin whisking in the butter, a cube at a time until it melts and incorporates into the hollandaise sauce. Wait for each cube to melt and incorporate before adding the next. Once all of the butter has been incorporated, remove from heat, whisk in the lemon juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To serve, drain the poached salmon and place each piece onto a dinner plate. Generously ladle with the warm hollandaise sauce, and sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Tip the potatoes and 1 tbsp of olive oil into an ovenproof dish, then roast the potatoes for 20 mins until starting to brown. Toss the asparagus in with the potatoes, then return to the oven for 15 mins.
• Throw in the cherry tomatoes and vinegar and nestle the salmon amongst the vegetables. Drizzle with the remaining oil and return to the oven for a final 10-15 mins until the salmon is cooked. Scatter over the basil leaves and serve everything scooped straight from the dish.

Steps:

• Cook 2 bunches jumbo asparagus (trimmed and peeled) in salted boiling water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes; drain. Combine 2 egg yolks and 1 tablespoon each lemon juice and hot water in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 1 to 3 minutes (remove from the heat if the eggs start to scramble). Gradually whisk in 1 1/2 sticks cut-up butter until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in 4 teaspoons whole-grain mustard; season with salt and cayenne. Thin with lemon juice as needed. Serve over the asparagus.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F).
• Cut off ends of asparagus spears and divide into 4 portions.
• Mince garlic, separate into 4 portions.
• Place one of tablespoon butter in center of each foil sheet (can use non stick cooking spray to loose some calories).
• Microwave one lemon for 15 seconds to release the juices.
• Place one salmon fillet in the center of each sheet.
• Top with serving of garlic and asparagus.
• Drizzle each serving with juice from lemon.
• Sprinkle with fresh ground black pepper and seasoning blend to taste.
• Bring up the sides of foil and fold top over twice.
• Fold up ends of foil leaving room for air to circulate inside the foil packets.
• Place in oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until easy to flake.
• To prepare the sauce:.
• Heat the butter in a heavy saucepan until hot and foamy, but DO NOT let the butter brown.
• In a small bowl, beat egg yolks with lemon juice.
• Add salt and cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
• Beat till foamy.
• Slowly beat in butter, then the water.
• Return mixture to saucepan and beat over very low heat until mixture is slightly thickened.
• Remove packets from oven and plate salmon and asparagus (please use extreme caution when opening steam can burn).
• Drizzle with sauce and serve with lemon wedge on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil in an ovenproof pan over a high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side down, then cook for 5 mins until the skin is crisp.
• Add the asparagus and vine tomatoes to the pan, then place in the oven. Cook for 7-10 mins until the salmon is just cooked through.
• Add the tarragon to the Hollandaise and stir through. Drizzle over the salmon, then serve.

Steps:

• Roast the potatoes:
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• On a large baking sheet, toss together the potatoes, oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven until tender. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into thin slices.
• Meanwhile, roast the asparagus:
• On a large baking sheet, toss together the asparagus, oil, salt, and pepper. Squeeze the lemon juice over the asparagus then roast in the oven until tender, about 5 minutes. Leave the oven on.
• Make the hollandaise:
• In a small saucepan over moderate heat, combine the vinegar, tarragon, and peppercorns and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering until reduced to about 1 tablespoon. Strain the vinegar through a fine-mesh sieve.
• Set a metal bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bottom of the bowl to touch the water). Add the egg yolks and vinegar reduction and cook, whisking constantly so the eggs don't scramble, until the yolks are fluffy and light in color. Add the clarified butter in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly. Remove the hollandaise sauce from the heat and cover to keep warm.
• Cook the salmon:
• Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
• In a large sauté pan over moderate heat, warm the olive oil until hot but not smoking. Add the salmon, skin side down, and sear until golden brown. Flip the salmon over, sear for about 10 seconds, then immediately flip the salmon over again so that the skin is facing down. Transfer the salmon to the oven to finish cooking for about 5 minutes. Squeeze the lemon juice over the salmon.
• To serve:
• Place a salmon fillet in the center of each of 4 plates. Arrange the potatoes and asparagus beside the salmon and drizzle the asparagus with the hollandaise.
