SLOW ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• If you're making the potatoes, start by heating the oven to 450 degrees F. If not, skip to step 5.
• Put the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, 1 teaspoon fresh thyme and 1 teaspoon dry rosemary. Add 2 teaspoons minced garlic and 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Toss to make sure the potatoes are well coated.
• Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, on a sheetpan or baking dish. Roast in the heated oven for about 25 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and push the potatoes to one side of your pan to make room for the salmon.
• Turn the oven heat down to 250 degrees F. Wait for the heat to lower to this point.
• Brush the bottom of the sheet pan where you made room for the salmon with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Season the salmon with kosher salt on both sides and put it in the pan next to the potatoes.
• Drizzle about 3 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over the salmon fillet. Spread the remaining fresh garlic on top (I use the back of a spoon to spread the garlic evenly all over the fish fillet). Sprinkle the remaining rosemary and fresh thyme.
• Roast the salmon in the 250 degree F heated oven for 15-18 minutes for medium rare, or up to 25 minutes for medium, depending on thickness of fish (insert a fork in the thickest part of the salmon, it should meet no resistance and should flake easily). To be sure, insert an instant read thermometer in the thickest part of the fish, it is ready when the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F for a medium-cooked salmon.
• Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on top of the salmon. Serve immediately.

SALMON POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Gather all the ingredients. You will need one 8" x 8" (20x20 cm) baking dish.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177 ºC) and set an oven rack in the middle position. Combine milk and heavy cream. Grease an 8-inch (or 2-quart) baking dish with butter.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into ⅛ inch (3 mm) uniform slices. Some people like to use a mandoline slicer and get very thin slices. But I personally like them to be slightly thicker. Tip: If you are making ahead, soak the potatoes in water for 10 minutes to prevent it from changing colors.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the potatoes, salt, pepper, and thyme.
• Toss everything until evenly coated. Arrange some of the potato slices in a single layer, overwrapping slightly, on the bottom of the baking dish. This baking dish is shallower than other baking dishes I have. Therefore I could make 2 sets of layers. I divide all the ingredients in half. You may be able to make 2-3 layers.
• Evenly distribute half of Salmon Flakes over the potatoes, then sprinkle half of the cheese on top.
• Pour half of the cream mixture over top. Repeat with remaining potatoes and Salmon Flakes.
• Sprinkle cheese and cream.
• Sprinkle a generous amount of panko over the top.
• Place in the oven and bake, uncovered, for about an hour, or until the potatoes are tender and golden on top.
• Check the doneness by inserting a skewer. If you prefer a nice char on top, turn the broiler on high for 1 to 2 minutes. Keep an eye on the baking dish so the top won't get burnt. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and set aside for 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with fresh thyme, if using, and then serve.

SALMON WITH TOMATOES

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring the rice and water to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 20 minutes.
• Heat the garlic oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon with salt, pepper, dill, and paprika, and cook in the hot oil 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until tender enough to break apart. Break salmon into cubes with a spatula or fork. Mix in the tomatoes, garlic, and lemon juice. Continue cooking until salmon is easily flaked with a fork.
• Mix the parsley, Parmesan cheese, butter, and hot pepper sauce into the skillet, and continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes, until well mixed. Serve over the cooked rice.
