Salmon on Croute.

 (This a Waitrose recipe)


500 g Leeks
150 g pack Boursin garlic and Herbs
320 g Pack Jus roll Puff Pastry
500 pack Scottish Salmon

Method

Wash leeks and trim.
Slice leeks thinly and place in a pan with 2 tbl sp. water.
Cover and cook slowly over medium heat for 8 to10 mins.
Stir in Boursin Cheese 
Leave to cool

Pre heat oven 200C or gas 6
Unroll pastry onto a baking sheet.
Skin the salmon and place on baking sheet, leaving 2 to 3 cm border.
Spoon leek and cheese mixture and spread over salmon, just on one side.
Wet edges with water (or egg if you want)
Fold over pastry and press edges together, trim off edges to neaten.
Make a small hole to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 30 to 35 mins until golden or cooked through.
Allow to rest, then cut into slices.

I'd serve this with new potatoes and green salad with an oil dressing.
Or if you're being good, just a large green salad, made up of.

.... shredded lettuce, slices of pickled cucumber with ginger, cold cooked peas and water cress.
Enjoy!

I love salmon en croute, in fact we had it for Christmas. Homemade.

Salmon is so good, both nutritional and tasty. This is a great way to change it up a bit. Thank you for sharing.
