Salmon fillet with white sauce, mushrooms, fresh onion and garlic

The last week i have been working a lot and i didn't had the time to cook properly and update the blog, but today since i am not working i have decided to cook a favorite dish to us, salmon in the oven with creme fraiche.

You will need: (for 2 people)
2 salmon fillets
2 dl creme fraiche (i use the 15%)
3-4 big mushrooms
4 big fresh onions
1 big garlic clove
Salt, pepper, oregano
8-10 small potatoes (really small)
Some olive oil

Remove the skin from the potatoes, wash them good and boil them covered, in salted water until they are tender when poked with a fork.

While the potatoes are boiling prepare the sauce. Wash the mushrooms and the 2 of the 4 onions (the other 2 we will use them on the potatoes) and chop them in small pieces, chop also the garlic. Add some olive oil in a sauce pan and when its hot throw in the mushrooms first, stir well and when they get colour and they are soft add the onion and the garlic, stir all the time and when they get a light brown color add the creme fresh and some water so its not that thick (about half of a tea cup but if you think its too thick add some more water). When it starts boiling turn the heat down to the medium and let it cook for about 10 min without a lid, stir from time to time and add some salt and pepper.

When the sauce is ready wash your salmon fillets, add some salt and pepper on both sides, put it in an oven pan (a small one) and cover it with the sauce. Put it in a preheated oven and cook it for about 20-25 min at 220 degrees in the middle of the oven. Serve it with boiled potatoes and add to them salt, pepper, oregano, olive oil and fresh onion.



Bon appetit!
