SALMON WITH SAUTéED MUSHROOMS, SHALLOTS AND FRESH HERBS
You'll never want to cook salmon any other way after you make this. It steams above a pan of water in a low oven, resulting in a very moist piece of fish. The mushrooms are wonderful on top or on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300ºF. Cover a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the salmon on top. Season with salt and pepper. Fill a roasting pan with boiling water and place it on the oven floor.
- Place the salmon in the oven and bake until the fish flakes and white bubbles of protein appear on the surface, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, cook the mushrooms. Heat a large, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. When the oil is hot (you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above the pan), add the mushrooms and cook, stirring or tossing in the pan, for a few minutes, until they begin to soften and sweat. Add the remaining oil, turn the heat to medium, and add the shallots, garlic, and herbs. Stir together, add 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and cook, stirring often, for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the shallots and garlic have softened and the mixture is fragrant. Add the wine and cook, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the wine has just about evaporated. Taste and adjust seasonings. Remove from the heat.
- Serve the salmon with a spoonful of mushrooms on top or on the side.

Steps:
- Season salmon with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Sprinkle flour onto one side of each fillet and pat gently onto the fish.
- Heat clarified butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon, floured side down, and let sear for 2 ½ minutes. Flip and sear the other side for 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover with foil.
- Add capers to the skillet and press with the back of a fork to gently mash. Pour in wine and lemon juice; add lemon zest. Swirl the pan to combine. Let reduce by half, about 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to low and add butter; swirl the pan or stir with a spoon or spatula until butter is almost fully melted. Transfer salmon and any accumulated juices from the plate back into the skillet. Allow butter to fully melt while spooning sauce over salmon.
- Pour in water to thin sauce if needed; continue to spoon sauce over salmon and cook until salmon is fully cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the fillets should read about 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Sprinkle parsley over top.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate; spoon pan sauce over salmon.

AROMATIC STEAMED SALMON

Steps:
- Pour about 1.5 litres cold water into a wok or large pan that will take a bamboo steamer on top. Add all the herbs and spices, bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to infuse for half an hour or so.
- Meanwhile, set aside about 24 large basil leaves from the bunch. Put half the remaining bunch (including stalks) into a pan with the shallots and Noilly Prat. Boil gently until the liquid is reduced to around 2 tbsp and the shallots are soft, about 3 minutes. Pour in the stock and boil gently until reduced by half. Add the two creams and remaining bunch of basil to the pan. Simmer until the sauce is reduced by half and has the consistency of pouring cream, about 3-4 minutes. While it's boiling, add a squeeze of lemon juice (if not boiling, the sauce will split).
- In the meantime, shred 8 of the reserved large basil leaves and put into a heatproof bowl or small pan. When the sauce has reduced down, check the seasoning and strain the sauce through a fine sieve onto the basil shreds. Set aside while you put the dish together.
- Separate the bok choi leaves. Trim off the stalks from the larger leaves (reserve the stalks) and arrange these leaves on the base of the steamer, like a daisy. When you're ready to cook the salmon, bring the aromatic water back to the boil. Scatter half the remaining 16 basil leaves over the bok choi. Press the rest of the basil on top of each salmon fillet. Season the leaves and drizzle with some oil, then sit the salmon on the leaves and drizzle with more oil and some lemon juice.
- Put the bok choi stalks, smaller leaves and hearts into a large bowl. Season with salt, drizzle with more olive oil (about 4 tbsp), 2 tbsp of the balsamic vinegar and a little more lemon juice, toss together and leave to wilt for about 3 minutes.
- Sit the steamer basket in the wok or over the pan and cover, then turn the heat to medium. Cook for 3 minutes. Take everything off the heat and leave to stand, still covered, for 4-5 minutes for fish that is lightly cooked inside and 6-7 minutes if you like the flesh firm.
- While the salmon is standing, heat a large non-stick frying pan until you can feel a strong heat rising - it should be 'stinking' hot. Toss in the wilted bok choi and immediately start to stir fry over a high heat for a couple of minutes until completely wilted and lightly caramelised. Drizzle in a little more olive oil and another 2 tbsp vinegar to deglaze. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside. Gently reheat the velouté.
- Divide the stir-fried bok choi between four warmed plates. Sit a salmon fillet on top, pour around the basil velouté and sit some of the steamed bok choi leaves on top of each salmon fillet to garnish.

- Serve the salmon with a squeeze of lemon juice and a dollop of tartar sauce.
