Salmon In Vodka Sauce Recipe 425

Steps:

• Boil pasta in salted water until al dente. While pasta is cooking, make the sauce. Saute shallot in olive oil in skillet. Add tomatoes (and spinach/kale if desired) and vodka and cook for 2 minutes. Add chicken broth and herbs. Add salmon and gently cook for five minutes. Stir in cream. Add cooked pasta to skillet and coat with sauce. Taste for seasonings, adding salt and pepper as desired. Serve with grated Parmesan and crusty bread.

Steps:

• Remove any tiny pin bones from the salmon with a pair of needle nose pliers or tweezers. Rinse the salmon under cold running water and pat dry. Place salmon, skin side down, on several large sheets of plastic wrap.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine salt, sugar, dill, vodka and lemon, lime and orange zests. Spread the sugar/salt/citrus mixture evenly over the fleshy side of the fish, pressing it into the flesh. Wrap the salmon tightly in the plastic wrap and place skin side down n a large baking dish. Place a flat glass or ceramic dish on top of the salmon and weight the dish with several heavy cans or a brick and refrigerate for at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours.
• Unwrap the salmon and rinse all of the cure off under cold, running water. Pat dry and slice diagonally into paper-thin slices.

Steps:

• Cook onion in oil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened (but not browned), about 6 minutes. Add broth, cream, vodka, and salt and boil over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced to 2 cups, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in dill, lemon zest and juice, and pepper. Reserve 1/2 cup sauce, then add salmon to saucepan and cook over moderately low heat until fish is just heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
• While fish is heating, cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta-cooking water, then drain pasta in a colander. Return pasta to pot, then toss with reserved sauce and cooking water. Serve pasta immediately with fish and sauce spooned over the top.

Steps:

• Put the clementine zest and juice, vodka and honey in a pan, season and bring to a simmer. Bubble for 10 mins until reduced by half. Add the clementine slices and simmer for a further 5 mins until the clementines are softened and a little sticky. Remove them from the liquid and transfer to a plate. Bubble the liquid until thickened to a glossy glaze.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a baking tray with foil or baking parchment and place the salmon in the middle - or on an angle to help it fit if you need to. Using a sharp knife, cut the salmon into 8 fillets, cutting through the flesh but not the skin, as this will hold the whole thing together. Cut the thinner end into slighter wider fillets, so everyone gets a similar portion. Brush the salmon with the glaze, making sure you get in between the gaps, and save a little for brushing on at the end. Lay the candied clementine on top, down the centre, and bake for 20 mins.
• While the salmon is cooking, make the beetroot crème fraîche by mixing all the ingredients together in a bowl with plenty of black pepper and a little salt - save a few chives to sprinkle on top. When the salmon is cooked, reheat the remaining glaze, adding a splash of water if it is too thick, and dab it over the top (wash the brush first as it will have come into contact with the raw salmon). Serve the salmon and sauce as part of a buffet, and let everyone dig in.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a wide frying pan over medium-low heat.
• Add shallot and cook, stirring often, until soft but not brown (about 3 minutes).
• Stir in chopped tomatoes, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add cream, nutmeg, chopped dill and vodka. Increase heat to high and bring to a full boil. Boil for 1 minute.
• Add pasta to sauce and mix lightly using 2 spoons, until pasta is well coated.
• Remove from heat.
• Add salmon and mix lightly.
• Season to taste with white pepper and garnish with dill springs.

Steps:

• heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat, until almost smoking.
• Add the salmon fillets and sear to brown, about 3 minutes a side.
• Add the onion , plum tomatoes, chives, asparagus tips and continue to cook for 2 minutes.
• Add vodka, tipping the pan toward the flame to ignite. Continue cooking until the flame goes out and the alcohol is burned off.
• Stir in the crushed tomatoes, grated cheese and enough heavy cream to create a pink sauce.
• Cook an additional 1-2 minutes, or until fish is cooked through.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the fish to serving plates and continue cooking and stirring the sauce to thicken if desired.
• Pour sauce over the fish and garnish with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan or wok over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add salmon and tomato and season with salt and pepper.
• Increase heat to high and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Pour in vodka, reduce heat, and simmer, until liquid is reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in cream and simmer until liquid reduced by half again, 3 to 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, add to sauce and toss to coat.
• Serve sprinkled with caviar and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley.
