Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 60 Minutes
Ready In: 65 Minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1/2 pound cauliflower florets, stems trimmed
3 cups water
salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup heavy cream
freshly ground white pepper
1 pound fresh salmon fillet, skinned and cut into 4 (4-ounce) pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup fresh baby sweet green peas
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. In a large saucepan, combine the cauliflower, water and salt over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until the cauliflower is very soft, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain. Put the cauliflower, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and the cream in a food processor and puree until smooth like creamed potatoes. Season with salt and white pepper. Put the salmon in a shallow baking pan, rub it with the olive oil, and season with the kosher salt and black pepper. Bake for 15 minutes. In a small skillet, heat the butter over medium heat and cook until it browns lightly, about 1 minute. Add the peas, stir gently, and cook for 1 minute. Spoon the pureed cauliflower in the center of each plate. Lay a piece of salmon on top of each and garnish with the peas.
