Salmon en Croute



 I made salmon en croute (salmon Wellington) recently.  It was so good.  It was based on a youtube video I found.  You need puff pastry and some salmon fillets.  I used some leftover broccoli instead of spinach in mine and slow baked at 300F for 35 minutes.

2 sheets of puff pastry, thawed

2 salmon fillets

2 cups blanched spinach (I used pre-cooked broccoli)

1/2 c cream cheese

1 egg plus 2 tbs milk whisked


Lay out puff pastry

Spread spinach over the sheet leaving a 2 inch border around it.

 Spread cream cheese over the salmon and lay on top of the spinach, cream cheese side down. 

 Brush egg wash around the border of the pastry.  Fold the sides of the pastry over the salmon.  Crimp the edges with a fork.  Flip the pastry over and lay onto a baking sheet.  Brush eggwash over top. Make cross hatch marks onto the pastry.

Repeat with the other sheet of pastry.  Bake 300F for 35 minutes, or adjust to your own oven.  

I sliced 8 portions out of my 2 pastry shells.

This is great Christine! I'm not a huge fan of salmon but my husband loves it and it does have some nice health benefits. Puff pastry makes everything better, This is going on my list to make for sure!
