Steamed Salmon With Peas And Leeks Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare steamer basket: Bring wine and water to a simmer in a large skillet or wok. Meanwhile, line the top of a small steamer basket with 1 lettuce leaf and a dill sprig. Season both sides of the salmon fillet with salt and pepper and place on top of the lettuce, then place remaining dill sprig over fish. Place the remaining lettuce leaf in the bottom basket and then top with cabbage "cup." Place the peas in the cup. Dot peas evenly with butter and season with salt.
• Steam fish and peas: When the liquid in the skillet is boiling, set the basket with the peas in skillet, rest the salmon basket on top, then secure bamboo lid tightly in place. Steam until peas are just tender and bright green and fish is evenly opaque throughout, 7 to 9 minutes (you'll have to remove the basket to check).
• Meanwhile, make sauce: Whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, and salt to taste. Serve salmon, cabbage, and peas immediately, with yogurt sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Run fingers lightly over salmon fillets to check for bones.
• Saute shallots in peanut oil over medium-low heat until lightly cooked, then set aside to cool. Add 1 tablespoon each of chopped parsley and mint. Rub this mixture over the salmon. Season to taste with salt and pepper. This may be done ahead of time. Refrigerate salmon until ready to continue.
• Place 3/4 cup of fish stock in the bottom of a steamer, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Place fish on rack; cover and steam until fish is cooked through. Cooking time will depend on thickness of fillets: plan on 9 minutes per inch of thickness. When fish is done, remove from steamer, and place each fillet on a warm plate. Set aside in a warm place while finishing the recipe.
• While salmon is steaming, coarsely chop eggs and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, combine remaining 1/4 cup of fish stock with stock from steamer, bring to a simmer, and cook julienned vegetables for 3 minutes. Add peas and cook 1 minute more.
• Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon, leaving juices in pan, and arrange around each salmon fillet.
• Place the saucepan with the juices over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce to approximately 2 tablespoons. Over low heat, whisk in butter, a tablespoon at a time. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Add remaining mint and parsley.
• Garnish the fish with chopped eggs, and spoon the butter sauce over the fish and vegetables. Serve with small buttered new potatoes, if desired.

Steps:

• Trim the outer leaves from the leeks and cut off the top down to where the leaves split. Cut the leeks into 3-4 chunks, then wash really well to remove any grit. Heat a steamer, add the leeks and cook for 8 mins. Tip in the peas and cook for 2-3 mins more until both are tender.
• Meanwhile, whisk the oil, vinegar, honey, mustard and seasoning together in a serving bowl to make the vinaigrette. Add the hot vegetables and herbs, and mix well.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil at medium heat. Add mushrooms, leeks and pepper and cook about 8 minutes or until veggies have soften. Put the salmon pieces on the veggies in the skillet.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic. Spread the mixture on the salmon. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes or until the flesh is easy to flake with a fork. Sprinkle with green onion. Serve with quarters of lemon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Cut four 12-by-17-inch pieces of parchment. Fold each in half crosswise to make a crease, then unfold and lay flat. Toss asparagus and leek with oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Season fish with salt and pepper. Arrange a fillet on one side of crease on each piece of parchment. Top with asparagus mixture, dividing evenly. Fold each piece of parchment over, then make small overlapping pleats to seal open sides, creating half-moon-shaped packets.
• Bake on 2 rimmed baking sheets, 10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to plates and carefully cut packets open with kitchen shears (steam will be released). Serve, topped with herbs and squeezed with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Boil the leeks in salted water for 6 mins until tender, but still holding their shape. Drain, leaving a little water in the pan, then return the leeks to the pan. Place over a low heat and stir in the peas and butter, cooking until the butter has melted and the peas are hot. Add the lemon juice, season with salt and pepper and serve straight away.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large pan, add flour and cook over medium heat until light brown and pasty (1-2 minutes).
• Slowly add milk and whisk until all flour bits are broken up. Continue to whisk while milk comes to a boil and thickens, and add salt and pepper to taste.
• When cream sauce is slightly thickened, add salmon and peas and continue to cook until sauce is thickened up and the salmon and peas are heated through. Stir in lemon juice and dill.
• Serve over hot white rice, toasted bread, a hot biscuit or puff pastry.

Steps:

• If there are any bones in the salmon, pull them out with tweezers and discard. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper.
• Trim off the stem ends of the leek. Cut the leek lengthwise into thin slices. Finely chop the leek. There should be about 1/3 cup.
• Drop the tomatoes into boiling water and let stand 9 to 12 seconds.
• Peel and remove the cores. Cut the flesh of the tomatoes into quarter-inch cubes. There should be about 1 1/4 cups.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a nonstick skillet over moderately high heat and add the salmon pieces skinned side up. Cook 2 minutes and then turn the pieces. If you want the salmon medium rare, cook the fish 2 minutes longer. Transfer the fish to a warm platter.
• Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Add the tomatoes and leek, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Cook about 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the salmon and sprinkle with the coriander or basil.
