KEDGEREE OF SALMON WITH SEA ASPARAGUS

Serves 8-10

A colorful dish using fresh and smoked salmon, decorated in yellow, white and green.The recipe can be cut in half. Sea asparagus, also known as Salicornia has a salty, crunchy brininess. The plant grows in protected salt marshes on all continents except Antarctica. To cook sea asparagus, blanch the plant in boiling water for 1 to 2 minutes, then shock it in a bowl of ice water. Once you have your blanched sea asparagus, all you really need to do is dress them with your best olive oil and add a little lemon juice, balsamic vinegar or other acidic component, plus a few grinds of black pepper.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
    5 medium chopped scallions
    2 cups sour cream
    3 tablespoons curry powder
    2 pounds salmon, poached
    ½ pound smoked salmon, diced
    2 cups converted rice
    4 cups chicken broth
    6 hard cooked eggs
    1 tablespoon onion, chopped
    2 tablespoons soft butter
    2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
    8 sprigs fresh parsley

    1 cup lemon butter




Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
    Melt the butter in a saute pan. Add the scallions and cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Add the sour cream and curry powder. Mix well.
    Flake the boneless and skinless cooked salmon. Combine with the diced smoked salmon.
    In a separate pot, stir the rice with the chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook over medium heat until the liquid is almost absorbed.
    While the rice is cooking, separate the egg yolks from the whites. Chop the egg whites.
    Reserve. Chop the egg yolks and save for garnish.
    Combine the rice and the salmon mixture. Mix in the egg whites. Butter a deep casserole dish large enough for the rice mixture. Spoon the salmon-rice mixture into the casserole dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees, and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
