Where to find ingredients
Find salmon at the fish counter or a fishmonger, and look for mushrooms, lemons and garlic in the fresh produce section of a supermarket. Fresh cream is in the dairy aisle. If needed, thick cooking cream can be used as a substitute, though fresh cream is best for the original 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 now and then, until it starts to thicken
- Season the sauce with salt and white pepper to taste
- Serve the grilled salmon steaks spooned over with the mushroom sauce
Observations
