THAI SALMON PARCELS

Steps:

• Mix together lime zest through cilantro.
• Lay out 1 sheet of filo and brush with 1/2 Tbs butter.
• Lay 2nd sheet on top and brush with more butter.
• Lay a salmon fillet 2-3 inches from short side of phyllo, season to taste with salt and pepper and put half of lime mixture on top.
• Fold short end of phyllo over salmon, and then fold in the 2 long sides.
• Fold the salmon over twice more, and cut off the remaining pastry.
• Do the same with the other fillet.
• Put the parcels on a greased baking sheet and brush with any remaining butter.

SALMON PARCELS - MICROWAVED

Steps:

• Arrange each salmon fillet on a 14" (35cm) square of greaseproof paper and season.
• Top each fillet with leeks and peas and 2 tbsp of creme fraiche.
• Sprinkle with pepper and salt and tarragon.
• Fold the paper over at the top and fold the ends underneath (think gift wrapping) and put them on a microwave-proof plate.
• Cook on full power for 5 minutes. (I have a smaller, older, over the stove microwave and they need 7 minutes).
• Unwrap and slide onto 2 plates and top with extra creme fraiche if using.
• I like to serve these with tiny new potatoes.

BAKED SALMON & NOODLE PARCELS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375°F Cook the noodles until just tender as they will get cooked a little more in the oven. Drain and rinse under cold water, then drain again.
• Take two large squares of baking parchment or foil and divide the noodles between them. Sit a salmon fillet on top, then add the scallions and chili.
• Scrunch the edges up a bit, then pour over the rest of the ingredients. Seal at the top to make parcels, then bake for 10 minutes. Leave for 2 minutes before opening.
