SAUCY SALMON, FENNEL AND POTATO GRATIN DAUPHINOISE
My latest culinary discovery and invention! I had some lovely fresh salmon fillets, a fennel bulb and lots of potatoes.....so, I thought I would make a one dish meal out of it. Everyone loved it and it is light enough to eat any time of the year. Do try to use WHOLE boned & skinned salmon fillets - they sit so well lengthways in your gratin dish! I added no garlic to mine - I felt that the fennel and onion flavours were enough; but if you like, a clove or two at the most might be a tasty addition. Serve with chilled Chablis, Colombard,Chardonnay or a good Rose wine for a delightful lunch or supper. We ate this with crusty bread and a big bowl of mixed salad.....plus a couple bottles of wine! This serves 6 people as a main meal, but it can be reduced or increased according to your menu requirements.

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 180C/350°F.
- Grease a large and preferably oval or rectangular oven dish (Gratin dish) with half of the butter.
- Layer half of the potatoes on the bottom of the dish, then arrange half of the fennel slices and half of the onion slices over the top. Season well with black pepper and some salt to taste.
- Carefully lay the salmon fillets over the top and continue with the onion, fennel and potato slices in that order - ending with the potatoes.
- Dot with the remaining butter and pour the creme fraiche or milk/cream mixture over the top.
- Season with black pepper and salt.
- Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours in a pre-heated oven, until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are soft when tested.
- Serve hot with lemon wedges and the green tops of the fennel bulb; crusty bread and salad would be lovely accompaniments.
