This is a very simple but delicious dish!
All the flavours work so well together;
I just love the horseradish and nutmeg in the mash,
it really compliments my asian jus.
A great home dinner party meal to WOW your guests.
INGREDIENTS (Serves 4)
4 x 200g Salmon Fillets (I like to have the skin on)
For the Mash:
750g Sweet Potato, peeled and roughly chopped
2 Tbsps Butter
1 Tbsp Horseradish Cream
1 Tsp Nutmeg
Pepper to Taste
Asian Jus:
3 Tbsps Balsamic Vinegar
3 Tbsps Mirin (Found int he Asian section of the supermarket)
To Serve:
2 Tbsps Shallots (green part only) or Chives, finely chopped
Steamed Broccolini (optional)
METHOD
Over a high heat, half fill a medium saucepan with water and a little salt. Add the sweet potato. Cook until firm. Fork should pass through.
While the potatoes are cooking, check there are no bones in salmon fillets. Remove if necessary.
When potatoes are cooked, drain and put in a bowl, mash well with butter, horseradish, pepper & nutmeg. Cover bowl.
Season salmon skin side up with salt and pepper.
Heat a large nonstick fry pan coated with oil spray over a high heat.
Add salmon skin side down and cook for 3 minutes or until skin is crispy.
Turn the salmon over. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 8 minutes or until salmon is cooked to your liking.
For the Jus:
Add the balsamic vinegar & mirin to small frying pan. Stir over a medium heat for 30 seconds, allowing the liquid to reduce slightly.
To Serve:
Place a mound of mash onto each serving plate. Put the salmon on top and then spoon the jus over the salmon. Garnish with the finely chopped chives.
