Seared Salmon With Tartare Sauce

 

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • Olive oil
  • 4 x 150g Norwegian Salmon portions
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup Mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp Dill pickles, chopped finely
  • 1 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dried dill
  • ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • ½ tbsp Capers, chopped (optional)


Method

  1. Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper.

  2. Heat a large non-stick heavy-based frying pan – it should sizzle when you drop a little water onto the pan. Place the salmon skin side down in the pan and sear the skin side for 2-3 minutes until a golden-brown crust begins to form on the skin. Turn the salmon over and cook until it is done to your liking. Rest in a warm place while you assemble the sauce.

  3. To make the tartare sauce, mix all the sauce ingredients together well.

  4. Serve the seared salmon with the tartare sauce, mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli or asparagus.
