Ingredients

  • For the salmon
  • 2 pieces Fresh Salmon or firm white fish like turbot or swordfish
  • 1 cup Fresh crabmeat
  • 1/2 cup Good quality mayonaise
  • 1 handful Fresh coriander
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
  • 4 tablespoons Fresh breadcrumbs
  • Pea and Mint Puree
  • 1 packet Frozen Peas
  • 1 bunch Fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Cream
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method

  • Preheat oven to Gas Mark 5, 375 F 190 C. Method Mix the crab, breadcrumbs, mayo, chopped coriander and mustard together in a small bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the crab mixture over the salmon and press down firmly so it forms a blanket on top of the fish. Now chill in the fridge for 15 mins to firm up before cooking.
  • In the meantime, make the pea puree by boiling your frozen peas for 2-3 minutes, strain and leave to cool. then in a blender mix with the fresh mint, cream and a good seasoning until a lovely thick mixture. This will make more than you need but it will keep in the fridge happily for a number of days. Once the crab salmon has chilled place it on a baking tray in the pre-heated oven and bake for 20 mins until nicely browned on top and the salmon is fully cooked through. Enjoy!
