Ingredients for the salmon

Ingredients
50 ml Runny honey
40 g Dijon mustard
3 cloves Garlic, chopped
4 tablespoon(s) Olive oil (+ more for brushing)
1 tablespoon(s) Lemon juice
1,2 kg Salmon fillet, bones removed, with skin
Salt
Black pepper, coarsely ground
20 g Dill tips to garnish

Ingredients for the puree

Ingredients
1 kg Potatoes, floury, peeled and diced
250 ml Whipped cream
4 tablespoon(s) Horseradish, freshly grated, or 2 tbsp horseradish from a jar
Sea salt
Black pepper, coarsely grated
  • For the honey and mustard glaze, whisk together the honey, mustard, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  • Line a baking tray with aluminum foil. Brush both sides of the salmon with olive oil. Place the fish skin-side down on the foil-lined tray. Brush the top of the salmon with the honey and mustard mixture.
  • Bake in the oven at 230 °C for about 16 minutes until just cooked through. Then remove from the oven and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
  • In the meantime, prepare the purée. Boil the potatoes in well-salted water until they are soft. Drain and return to the pot. Add the whipped cream, horseradish and pepper, season with salt and mash to a smooth puree.
  • Serve the salmon in the middle of the table, garnished with fresh dill and with the horseradish puree on the side.

Tip:

Falstaff wine recommendation

GOLDEN Grüner Veltliner Weinviertel DAC reserve 2022
Winery R&A Pfaffl

Medium greenish yellow, silver reflections. Fine meadow herbs, a hint of Golden Delicious apple, some mango and candied orange zest, inviting bouquet. Deep, complex, fine herbal spice, ripe pear, full-bodied on the finish, white apple, salty aftertaste, a multi-faceted food wine, good ageing potential.
