Salmon Pot Pie / En Croute (Sort Of!)
- 2 skinless boneless salmon fillets
- 12 white onion
- 10 button mushrooms (quartered)
- 100 g fresh spinach
- 1 pint bechamel sauce (-ish)
- 200 g puff pastry
- lemon juice (to taste)
- garlic pepper seasoning (to taste)
- Please note that I use two seperate 1 pint dishes for this recipe, but I can't see why it wouldn't work just as well in one big dish.
- Pre-heat oven to 190c.
- Steam the spinach leaves until they wilt and saute off the onion for about 5 minutes or until softened.
- Make up the white sauce while the spinach and onion are cooking - I make it from scratch as it's so easy.
- I do it from memory but it's about 1tbsp butter (melted) mixed with the same amount of flour to make a roux, then 1/2pt or so of milk added gradually over the heat, and stir til it thickens nicely.
- Add the lemon and garlic pepper to the sauce towards the end if you're going to add it.
- Layer the sauce with the onion, spinach, salmon and mushrooms in your dish(es).
- If your pastry's not pre-rolled, roll it out and place it on top of the salmon, etc.
- I like to tuck it in down the sides because I'm too lazy to cut it to size.
- Either prick the surface with a fork or score out some lines along the top.
- Brush the pastry with either egg or milk and bake in the oven at 190c for approx 30 minutes.
- NB.
- My oven is a bit nuts, so you may well need to adjust the time/setting.
