Ingredients

  • 800 g salmon fillets (4 pieces)
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • Salt
  • Pepper (freshly ground)
  • 30 g Butter
  • 30 g flour
  • 50 ml white wine
  • 1 tbsp mustard (medium sharp)
  • 200 ml water
  • 100 ml whipping cream
  • 2 large fennel bulbs

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash the fennel, halve it lengthwise, trim the core and slice into fine strips. Set aside the tender green parts.

  2. 2.

    Drizzle salmon fillets with lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and place in an oven-safe dish. Cover almost completely with white wine and water, then cover with parchment paper. Poach in a preheated oven at about 200°C for 15-20 minutes. Remove the fish from the broth; wrap in foil and keep warm at 80°C in the oven.

    Cream butter with flour, heat the fish broth in a pot with mustard, and add the flour mixture in coarse lumps. Add cream and fennel, then stir. Simmer gently for about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, fold in 1 tbsp chopped fennel green. Plate fillets with fennel and sauce, garnish with fennel greens.
