Brad's salmon roll ups with lemon dill cream sauce

This recipe is not super tough. But knife skills are important. As well as nailing down the timing. But this is a very flavorful dish. I served this dish with wild Chantrelle mushroom risotto.

Ingredient

pkg cream cheese, room temperature

1/4 cup

fresh dill, chopped. Reserve some for garnish

9 drops

yellow food coloring, optional

lemon cut into wedges for garnish

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Deshelled crab. Mix in a bowl with cream cheese, and fresh basil. Set aside.

* Step 2

Saute onion in a small frying pan with a little butter. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes to sweat off. Add garlic and cook one more minute. Do not let brown. Add white wine. Let liquid reduce almost completely. When done fold into cream cheese mixture. Keep at room temperature.

* Step 3

Next prepare the salmon fillet. Completely debone fish. Remove fins, and belly locks. Reserve for stock for risotto if desired. Remove pin bones with a pair of pliars.

* Step 4

Remove skin and filet meat so that it is around a quarter inch thick. It is easier to do this if the fish is chilled. After this cut into chunks around 3 inches wide and as long as possible.

* Step 5

Place pieces of meat on a board with the long side towards you. Spread crab mixture evenly on top. Roll up to the short side. You should have a long tube about 3 inches around. Using butchers twine, tie around the roll, starting at an inch from the end. Tie every two inches. Repeat this until all of the salmon is rolled and tied.

* Step 6

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut rolls of salmon in between the tied twine. Place in a baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes. After that change temp to 450 and bake another 5 minutes.

* Step 7

Immediately start the sauce. Melt butter in a large frying pan. Add flour. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes to combine well. Do not let brown. Stir constantly. Add lemon juice first. Stir until incorporated. Next add wine. Do the same. Next add cream a half cup at a time stirring constantly. During this the bouillon and dill can be added and the food coloring if you prefer to use it. Add cream until you get a nice creamy gravy.
