Where to find ingredients
Look for salmon at the seafood counter or fish market, with mushrooms, lemons and garlic in the fresh produce area of the supermarket or local market. Fresh cream is usually in the chilled dairy section. If fresh cream is not available, cooking cream can be used as a substitute, but fresh cream gives the intended sauce.
Preparation method
- Season the salmon steaks with crushed garlic, salt, lemon juice and black pepper
- Leave the salmon to marinate in the fridge for about 30 minutes
- Heat a frying pan or grill pan over medium-high heat
- Grill the salmon steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through inside
- While the salmon is grilling, prepare the sauce
- In another frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat
- Add the sliced mushrooms and saute until lightly browned
- Pour the fresh cream into the pan with the mushrooms
- Cook the sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it starts to thicken
- Season the sauce with salt and white pepper to taste
- Serve the grilled salmon steaks with the mushroom sauce spooned over
