Salmon fillet on lettuce leaves with honey-mustard sauce topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 900 g salmon fillet with skin
- 5 small ears of corn
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 3 tablespoons of honey
- 2 tbsp. prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp. l. canola oil
- 1 bunch coarsely chopped watercress
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced into half rings
- 2 tablespoons aged sherry vinegar
- 2 tbsp. l. olive oil
Preparation:
- In a small bowl, combine mustard, honey, horseradish, mint, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Let sit for at least 15 minutes before using to allow the flavors to meld. You can make this a day in advance and refrigerate, but add the mint only just before using. Bring the mustard sauce to room temperature before serving.
- Preheat grill to high heat.
Grill the corn on the cob on all sides until charred, about 5 minutes. Let cool, and then use a knife to scrape the kernels off the cob.
Brush the salmon with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the fish skin-side down on the grill and grill until golden brown and charred, about 3 minutes.
- While the salmon is cooking, place the watercress, toasted corn kernels, and red onion in a medium bowl. Add the sherry vinegar and oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Transfer the salad to a serving platter, top with the salmon fillet, and drizzle with the mustard sauce.
