Salmon Fillets (Marinated)





2 salmon fillets, without skin


3 cloves of garlic


Juice of 1 lemon


Rind of one lemon


1 tablespoon of ginger


handful of chopped fresh dill


2 tablespoon of butter


1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil





In a large plastic bag place the salmon together with lemon juice and rind, chopped ginger and garlic, and the fresh chopped dill.


Heat the butter until it is mostly melted and let it cool down slightly.


Add the butter to the large plastic bag with the salmon.


Let it sit in the fridge for a few hours to marinate.


Heat a pan with enough olive oil to just cover the bottom of the pan.


Sear the salmon for 2 minutes on each side. If you like your salmon more “well done”, place it in a 350 degree oven for about 8 minutes or until desired doneness.

Coconut Crumbed Dolphin (Mahi-Mahi)








2 pounds fish fillets skinned and boned


flour


2 eggs


oil - light -peanut?


1 cup crumbs -bread


1 cup dessicated Coconut


SAUCE


2 mangoes skinned and flesh removed


2 tablespoons brown sugar


2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil-use thai basil if you can get it


1 clove garlic s


plash white wine -1/4 cup ?- Vermouth ? Midori ? I Digress here !


Ground black pepper to season and a touch of soy sauce


Finely chopped Hab


Process Sauce ingredients till smooth -Set aside.


Flour fish, combine crumbs and Coconut. Dip fish in beaten eggs and coat with crumb mixture -press crumbs into fish. Chill fish for 1 hour to set coating. Shallow fry 2 min each side drain and drizzle with sauce.





Now i would put some sauce around the fish and run a circle of Coconut milk/cream around the outside and do that swish Knife thing to make it look pretty .But then again i would also soak my dessicated Coconut in the Coconut milk/or cream for an hour to give more flavour .,and also whip a bit of candied Ginger into the sauce ,not much ,just a hint . But then again you probably would do much the same.......


To serve 4-6 ? this all depends on whether your Country club members still eat Nouveu Cuisine or go for broke .

BAKED SALMON STUFFED WITH MASCARPONE SPINACH


Serve with pan-fried potatoes. What to drink: A crisp Sauvignon Blanc from California or New Zealand, or a French Sancerre.





1 10-ounce bag fresh spinach leaves


1/2 cup cream cheese (about 4 ounces), room temperature


1/2 cup mascarpone cheese,* room temperature


Pinch of ground nutmeg


8 6- to 8-ounce salmon fillets with skin (each about 1 inch thick)


Olive oil


2 2/3 cups fresh breadcrumbs from French bread with crust


1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted


1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese














Cook spinach in large pot of boiling water just until wilted, about 30 seconds. Drain; rinse with cold water. Squeeze spinach dry, then finely chop. Place in small bowl. Mix in cream cheese, mascarpone, and ground nutmeg. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut one 3/4-inch-deep, 2 1/2-inch-long slit down center of top side of each salmon fillet, forming pocket for spinach mixture. Fill each slit with spinach mixture, dividing equally among salmon fillets. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)


Preheat oven to 450°F. Brush rimmed baking sheet with olive oil. Sprinkle salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Mix breadcrumbs, melted butter, and Parmesan cheese in medium bowl. Top each salmon fillet with breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere. Place salmon fillets, skin side down, on prepared baking sheet. Bake salmon until opaque in center, about 12 minutes. Transfer to plates and serve.
