SEARED SALMON ON POTATO CAKE, WILTED SPINACH W/ DIJON SAUCE



Seared Salmon on Potato Cake, Wilted Spinach W/ Dijon Sauce image

Simple one skillet meal but beautiful and tasty. The Zaar powers that be made me include the ingredients for the potato pancake recipe I used. Please refer to the chef's recipe for directions or use your own potato cake recipe. Keep in mind the nutritional info will be incorrect for this reason, i.e. only used half the ingredients for the potato cakes.

JAVANESE ROASTED SALMON AND WILTED SPINACH



Javanese Roasted Salmon and Wilted Spinach image

This salmon dish is amazing! I was invited for dinner the other night and this was the main course. The red pepper flakes give off plenty of heat, but it's nicely balanced by the brown sugar and other ingredients. The sauce is heavenly!I asked for the recipe, and my host said she got it out of the latest issue of "Bon Apetit" which I had sitting on my coffee table! This comes from the "Saucebox" restaurant in Portland, Oregon.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality salmon fillets. Look for fillets that are firm and have a deep pink color.
  • To ensure that the salmon is cooked evenly, sear it in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Do not overcrowd the skillet, or the salmon will not cook evenly.
  • If you are using frozen salmon fillets, thaw them completely before cooking. To thaw the fillets quickly, place them in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
  • To make the potato cakes, use a variety of potatoes. This will give the cakes a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Be sure to season the potato cakes well with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the potatoes.
  • When wilting the spinach, do not overcook it. The spinach should be wilted but still have a slightly crunchy texture.
  • To make the Dijon sauce, use a good quality Dijon mustard. This will give the sauce a rich and flavorful taste.
  • To serve the seared salmon, place it on top of the potato cakes and wilted spinach. Then, spoon the Dijon sauce over the salmon.

Conclusion:

This recipe is a delicious and easy way to prepare salmon. The salmon is seared until it is crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The potato cakes are a great way to add some extra starch to the dish, and the wilted spinach is a healthy and flavorful side dish. The Dijon sauce is the perfect finishing touch, adding a tangy and creamy flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to impress your friends and family.
