Ingredients
- 1 piece salmon tail piece
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup flour plain
- ½ cup milk full cream
- ½ cup peas frozen, corn and capsicum
- ¼ cup cheese grated
- ¼ cup parsley chopped
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 200 °C/400 °F
-
Put the salmon on some baking paper on a baking tray
-
Add the frozen vegetables around the salmon
-
Put the salmon and vegetables into the oven and cook for 12 minutes
-
Wait about 6 minutes before making the white sauce so it’s warm when you plate up the salmon
-
In a saucepan melt the butter, wait for it to start foaming
-
While whisking the butter, add the flour and whisk briskly so the butter and flour becomes smooth
-
Keep whisking until the butter and flours starts to change colour
-
Slowly add the milk and whisk
-
Judge the amount of milk knowing that the cheese will also thicken the sauce
-
Vary the heat to allow the sauce to remain liquid
-
Whisk to keep the sauce smooth
-
Add the cheese and stir through
-
Turn off the heat
-
Add the chopped parsley and stir through
-
When the salmon and vegetables are finished, plate up the salmon and add the vegetables to the plate
-
Pour over the cheesy parsley white sauce

Recipe Notes
Oddly enough I had salmon for lunch today too. It was a pasta dish from Urban Bean Espresso Bar.

Thank you
That does look fancy – and delish. Anything that gives me more Netflix time is a winner in my books :0
I hardly watch any free to air TV now that I have Netflix
Love fish
If I could eat it
Every day I could
Great post
As Sheldon Always
Me too Sheldon. Fish is great.
You make cooking look so easy, Gaz. I like to cook pasta and a side of fried veggies each Saturday evening in bulk for 4 weeknights a week. It takes me 1 hour to prep 🙁
Sounds like a good way to reduce the amount of work during the week Mabel. It sounds nice too.
When I come home, it is just put some cheese on top and chuck in the microwave 😀 But fresh is always best. But I am just too lazy and tired each day to cook. Props to you 😀 Tomorrow is Friday, I think I might get pizza.
Pizza sounds perfect. I think I’m attending a food blogger meet up tomorrow at a Vietnamese place.
Enjoy, Gaz. I will be looking forward to your weekend photos on IG as usual this weekend 😀 You make weekends look so relaxing.
Thanks Mabel. It’s been many years in the making, but discovering the value of work life balance is so important.
