Cod and Smoked Salmon Rolls in
Saffron Sauce
(serves four to six)
Ingredients:
500 g cod filets
200 g smoked salmon
100 ml white wine
200 ml cream
1 tsp mustard
1 tsp sunflower oil
½ tsp saffron
salt and pepper
Method:
Gently warm white wine
and saffron in a small saucepan. Add cream and season with salt and pepper.
Pour into a large shallow ovenproof dish.
Place the slices of
smoked salmon on a large piece of baking parchment so that they overlap
slightly and form a long rectangle. Spread with mustard and sprinkle with
pepper. Top with the cod filets and wrap to form a long log. Cut into
medaillons of about 2 cm lengths and stand them, cut side up, in the saffron
sauce. Drizzle with the sunflower oil. Do not salt, as the smoked salmon is
quite salty and will season the fish sufficiently.
You can prepare the
dish up to this stage and keep it covered in the fridge for a couple of hours.
To cook, pre-heat the
oven to 180°C and bake the dish on the middle shelf for 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve with rice and
wilted spinach leaves.
