Salmon Wellington in Phyllo Dough

Joel Lafond, Executive Chef with the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue Catering Department

 

Yield: 4 servings

 

Ingredients

4 – 170 gm (6 oz)

Salmon Fillets, skinned

115 gm (4 oz)

Fresh Spinach

1

Red Pepper, roasted, peeled and seeded
(Hint: Place pepper on barbecue until black, then put in a paper bag and allow to cool slightly. The skin will peel off easily.)

115 gm (4 oz)

Shitake Mushrooms

6 sheets

Phyllo Dough

60 gm (2 oz) Butter, melted
28 gm (1 oz) Fresh Garlic, chopped

Salt and Pepper to taste

 

Method

Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and sear both sides in olive oil in a hot frying pan, not cooking all the way through. Allow to cool slightly and set aside.

Slice the shitake mushrooms, julienne the red pepper and preheat a frying pan. Sauté the mushrooms, spinach, peppers and garlic in olive oil and season to taste. Allow to drain and cool.

Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough and brush melted butter on the sheet with a pastry brush. Repeat with two more sheets, layering one on top of the other. Cut the sheets in half and place some of the mushroom, spinach and pepper mixture (about 85 gm or 3 oz) about 2 inches from the bottom of the layered sheets. Place a piece of salmon on top and fold the dough from the bottom over the salmon and roll over once. Then fold in both sides and roll the salmon until it is completely rolled in the phyllo dough. Brush the top with melted butter and repeat with the next three portions.

Once complete and ready to eat, place on a pan and bake uncovered at 175º C (350º F) for 12 to 16 minutes and until phyllo is golden brown. Serve with your favourite side dishes. You could also serve the salmon with a sauce if you wish. A red pepper or grainy mustard dill sauce would go well with this dish.
