- 1.54lb / 700g salmon fillet
- 1.1lb / 500g peeled shrimp
- 1 1/2 cups / 360ml heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons / 30g all-purpose flour
- 1 cup / 120g grated aged cheddar cheese (31%)
- 2.8oz / 80g red caviar
- 1/4 cup / 60ml white wine
- 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1/2 lemon, juiced (approximately 2 tablespoons / 30g)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Unsalted butter for greasing the baking dish
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a large baking dish with unsalted butter and set it aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine chopped fresh dill, salt, and pepper.
3. Place the salmon fillet on a cutting board and sprinkle both sides with the dill mixture, making sure to coat it evenly.
4. In a large skillet, sauté the chopped chives and shrimp in unsalted butter over medium heat until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons (30g) of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup (60ml) of white wine, and 1 cup (240ml) of heavy cream. Add 2 tablespoons (30g) of freshly squeezed lemon juice and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
6. In the baking dish, create a layer of cooked shrimp. Top with a layer of the cream sauce, followed by a layer of salmon fillet. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cream sauce on top.
7. Sprinkle 2.8oz (80g) of red caviar and 1/2 cup (60g) of grated aged cheddar cheese over the top layer of cream sauce.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the salmon is cooked through.
9. Serve hot and enjoy!
