Salmon With Champagne Dill Sauce Food

SALMON IN CHAMPAGNE SAUCE

Steps:

• First of all, smear a little butter over the base of the frying pan, then arrange the fillets in it. Now slowly pour the Champagne over the salmon (it will foam quite a lot, but not to worry), then bring it to a simmer over a medium heat. Now spoon the Champagne over the top of the fillets before putting the lid on. Then gently poach the salmon for about 8-10 minutes. The tip of a knife inserted into the thickest part will show if it is cooked when you just ease the flesh back. While the salmon is poaching, melt the butter in a medium saucepan and cook the shallots in it over a gentle heat for 5-6 minutes, until softened and golden but not browned. When the salmon is cooked, carefully lift the fillets on to a warmed dish, cover them with foil and keep warm. Next, add the flour to the buttery shallot juices, stir it in and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Now gradually add the salmon poaching liquid to the pan, a little at a time, then blend in the double cream, whisking until the sauce is smooth. Let it come to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, then taste and add some seasoning. Serve the salmon fillets on warmed plates with a little of the sauce spooned over and a teaspoon of keta and a sprig of dill on top, and hand the rest of the sauce round in a warmed jug. I think steamed Anya potatoes tossed in butter and chives are a nice accompaniment, perhaps with fresh, shelled peas, or a green salad with plenty of cucumber and a lemony dressing.
