Stuffed Salmon In Phyllo Pastry Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse salmon fillets and pat dry on paper towels.
• Put parsley, chives, oregano and thyme on a cutting surface and chop together until very fine and well combined. Sprinkle in a shallow pan and stir in the 1/2 cup of olive oil.
• Coat the salmon fillets on both sides with the marinade and set aside about 30 minutes at room temperature, or for 1 to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• To make the filling, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saute pan. Add the onion and leek and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the spinach and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Cook 4 minutes. Stir in dill, salt and pepper. Turn the mixture into a bowl and refrigerate until cool. Stir in the egg, cheeses and bread crumbs.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle lemon juice over the salmon.
• Put two sheets of phyllo, one on top of the other, on a work surface, keeping the unused pastry covered with a damp towel. Cut them in half lengthwise. Cut across into 4 pieces and brush with butter. (These pieces will be used as patches to reinforce phyllo packets).
• Put one sheet of phyllo on a work surface. Brush with butter. Top with another sheet of phyllo. Brush with butter. Put one of the patches on top of the phyllo, about 2 inches from the edge. Put one piece of salmon over the patch. Cover with 1/4 cup of the filling. Fold bottom of phyllo over salmon. Brush the folded portion with butter. Fold in the sides of the phyllo and brush with butter. Roll up the salmon in the phyllo to make a neat packet. Brush the top with butter and seal the end of the roll onto the packet with butter.
• Repeat Step 4 with remaining ingredients to make 8 packets, putting packets on two ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• In a pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add the garlic and onions, cooking until translucent.
• Add the spinach, salt, and pepper, cooking until spinach is wilted.
• Add the breadcrumbs, cream cheese, parmesan, and dill, stirring until mixture is evenly combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
• On a cutting board, smooth out the sheet of puff pastry. Place the salmon in the middle of the pastry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Place several spoonfuls of the spinach mixture on top of the salmon, smoothing it out so that it does not spill over the sides.
• Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the salmon and spinach, starting with the longer sides and then the shorter ends. Trim any excess pastry from the ends, then fold the ends on top. Flip the puff pastry-wrapped salmon over and transfer for a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Brush the beaten egg on the top and sides of the pastry. Score the top of the pastry with a knife, cutting shallow diagonal lines to create a crosshatch pattern.
• Brush the top again with the egg wash.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until pastry is golden brown.
• Slice, then serve!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut the filets into log shaped pieces, about 2 inches wide by 5 inches long, keeping the filet portions separate. Take 2 sheets of phyllo dough, placing one on top of the other, and brush lightly with melted butter, covering the one side completely.
• Place a portion of salmon (6 ounces), on the edge, nearest you, of the phyllo dough. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Coat the portion of salmon with 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.
• Fold the phyllo dough, nearest you, over the salmon and make one complete wrap. Take the sides of the dough and fold them towards the center, and continue rolling up the dough. Brush all sides with butter, covering completely and place on a cookie sheet. Repeat steps for remaining portions of salmon.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until phyllo dough is golden brown.

Steps:

• Stuffing:Mix gently in a bowl crab, cream cheese, onion, salt, pepper& hot sauce.
• Preparation of fish--------.
• Make a slit in each fillet about 3/4 way through.
• Divide the stuffing evenly between the 6 fillets.
• and stuff each one.
• Heat 2 tbsp oil in a hot skillet and brown the salmon fillets on both sides.
• Take out 2 sheets of phyllo pastry and cut them in half, lightly brush each piece with melted butter and layer them.
• Place a fillet with an asparagus spear on top of the (4layer) phyllo and fold the pastry over the salmon so it is completely covered.
• Repeat with remaining 5.
• You may now place the salmon in the fridge, covered, until ready to bake (can be prepared up to a day in advance).
• When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350F bake 20-25 minutes.
• Nice served with a white wine sauce or hollandaise.

Steps:

• Sift flour and salt into a mixing bowl and add the water with oil.
• Stir until forms soft dough, then knead in the bowl about 10 minutes.
• Dough will feel sticky at first, but kneading, it should develop into a dough that becomes smooth and satiny.
• When well mixed and smooth, wrap pastry in plastic wrap and leave it to rest at room temperature about one hour.
• If not all the dough is being used right away, wrap the unused portion and keep chilled in fridge up to a week.
• Always bring to room temp before using.
• Divide the pastry into 12 equal portions, shaping them into smooth balls.
• Cover with a cloth, except the one you're working with.
• Take a ball of dough, and shape it into a square.
• Place it on a lightly floured surface, and roll into a 6 inch square using rolling pin.
• Dust again with flour.
• Take the dowel, and place on one end of the pastry, and roll neatly onto the dowel, pressing firmly as you do so.
• Keep hands on each side of the pastry.
• Unroll the pastry and dust the work surface and pastry with a little flour, and roll up again from opposite side as before, exerting pressure as you go.
• Unroll carefully.
• After second rolling, the pastry should be about 10x12 inches.
• Using the back of your hands, place them under the pastry and stretch gently, moving hands to keep it even, working toward the edges.
• The edges can be given a final stretch with the fingertips.
• You should wind up with a pastry that's 14x18 inches in size.
• Place on a cloth, cover with wax paper and fold the cloth over the top.
• Repeat the above process with remaining dough balls, laying each on top of the previous one with wax paper between them.
• Use soon after making as they'll go sour if you keep them too long.
• If desired, you can roll them out more thinly.
• Repeating the dowel rolling process more will result in a thinner square each time.
• Phyllo can be used like a puff pastry when thicker, or it's wonderful in baklawa, lamb pastries, or many other mid eastern sweets when rolled very thin.
• In Greece, they'll often use phyllo as a crust for certain types of pies, such as spinach.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers and leek and sauté until leek is tender, about 6 minutes. Add wine and crushed red pepper to skillet. Simmer until liquid evaporates, about 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Cool vegetable mixture. Stir in basil and salt.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Melt remaining 6 tablespoons butter in small saucepan. Place 1 pastry sheet on work surface (keep remaining phyllo sheets covered). Brush with some of melted butter. Top with second pastry sheet; brush with melted butter. Place 1 salmon fillet crosswise on pastry sheet, 5 inches in from 1 short end. Top salmon fillet with 1/4 cup of vegetable mixture. Fold 5-inch section of pastry over salmon. Fold in sides. Roll up, forming rectangular packet. Transfer to heavy large baking sheet, vegetable side up. Brush packet all over with melted butter. Repeat with remaining pastry sheets, melted butter, salmon fillets and vegetables. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
• Bake salmon until pastry is pale golden and salmon is cooked through, about 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425ยบF.
• Combine first 3 ingredients. Spray 1 phyllo sheet with cooking spray; top with 2 of the remaining phyllo sheets, spraying each sheet with additional cooking spray before using as directed. Place remaining phyllo sheets between sheets of plastic wrap; set aside until ready to use.
• Place 1 fish fillet along one short side of phyllo stack; top with 1/4 of the spinach mixture. Fold over long sides of phyllo, then roll up, starting at fish-topped side. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, fish and spinach mixture. Place, seam sides down, on parchment-covered Baking Sheet; spray with cooking spray. Cut 3 diagonal slits in top of each wrap.
• Bake 10 to 12 min. or until crusts are golden brown and fish flakes easily with fork. Meanwhile, mix sour cream, cucumbers and dill until blended
• Serve fish with sour cream mixture.
