STEP BY STEP
Let’s make it.
- Melt butter in a saucepan and soften leek and celery for 5 minutes without browning.
- Add cauliflower, measured water, salt and pepper. Simmer for 12–15 minutes until cauliflower is just tender.
- Lower in salmon and pour in cream. Simmer very gently for 5–7 minutes, until the fish reaches 145°F (63°C). Avoid stirring roughly.
- Take off the heat, add lemon juice and parsley, and divide fish, vegetables and broth into 4 servings.
Kitchen notes
- Refrigerate leftovers promptly in shallow containers. Reheat to 165°F (74°C), stirring so the whole portion is hot.
