(Gratin Aux Fruits De Mer)
|
|
|
| What You Need: |
|
|
|
¼ cup finely-minced onion
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
¼ cup dry white wine
1 cup milk
Juice from the salmon, if any
¼ teaspoon salt
Pepper to taste
6 tablespoons heavy cream (approximately)
1½ cups cooked salmon (or other fish)
1 cup sliced cooked mushrooms
2 hard-boiled eggs
¼ cup grated Swiss cheese
1 tablespoon butter

|
|
|
| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Cook the onion and butter in a covered casserole for 5 minutes in the microwave oven.
|
2. Stir in the flour, then the milk, wine, salmon juice, if any, and the seasonings. Cook, covered, until the sauce thickens, stirring several times to keep the flour suspended.
|
3. Thin to medium consistency with the cream. Add the salmon and mushrooms and sliced egg. Spread in a dish. Cook 5 minutes, or as long as needed, to heat through.
|
4. Stir once. Top with the cheese and remaining butter. Cook1 minute longer, to melt the cheese.
|
|
TIP:
|
|
If substituting a milder-flavor fish for the salmon, spice up the flavor by adding ¼ teaspoon of either tarragon or dill weed.
