Ingredients

  • 1 x 225g fillet portion of Shetland Salmon skin on and scaled.
  • ½ shallot, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Noilly Prat
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 75g butter, cut into cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 150g spinach Seasoning
  • ½ tomato, blanched, deseeded and chopped Chives

Method

Heat the oven to 250°C/450°F/Gas Mark9. Check the salmon for pinbones, remove any that remain. Reduce the vermouth and vinegar with the shallot in a small pan, until a syrupy consistency. Add the cream and reboil, whisk in 60g of the butter until it is incorporated and season. Pass through a sieve and reserve in a warm place. Place a non-stick pan over a high heat, season the salmon. Coat the pan with oil and place in the salmon, skin side down. Cook for approximately 2 minutes and then transfer to the oven for a further 8 minutes. Remove and reserve.

In a wok, heat the remaining butter, add the well washed spinach a few leaves at a time, until wilted. Season and drain in a colander. Add the chopped tomato and chives to the sauce and reheat. Place the drained spinach on a warm plate, sit the salmon, skin side up, on top and sauce around. Serve immediately.
