  • Prep approx. 40 min

Pan-fried salmon on lemon risotto with mascarpone and Graubünden mountain cheese, served with steamed fennel and peas.

Method

  1. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 1: Preparation

    Preparation

    Take the salmon out of the fridge approx. 15 mins before frying and season with salt. Preheat the oven to 100 °C, warming a small ovenproof dish at the same time.

  2. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 2: Risotto

    Risotto

    Heat the oil in a pan. Sweat the onion and rice for approx. 2 mins until the rice is translucent. Deglaze with the white wine and let it reduce. Add the stock gradually so the rice is always just covered. Simmer for approx. 18 mins, stirring occasionally, until the rice is creamy and al dente.

  3. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 3: Fennel & peas

    Fennel & peas

    Heat the rapeseed oil in a pan. Cover and steam the fennel over a medium heat for approx. 6 mins. Add the peas and steam for approx. 2 mins more. Bring a little water to the boil with the vinegar, blanch the onion in it for approx. 1 min, then drain. Add the onion to the fennel and season with olive oil, salt and pepper.

  4. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 4: Salmon

    Salmon

    Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Sear the salmon for approx. 2 mins on each side, then transfer to the warmed dish. Finish cooking in the oven for approx. 10 to 20 mins, depending on thickness, until the salmon is still slightly translucent in the centre.

  5. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 5: Finishing the risotto

    Finishing the risotto

    Remove the pan from the heat. Stir the mascarpone, cheese, basil, lemon zest and juice into the risotto and season with salt and pepper. Cover and leave to rest for approx. 2 mins.

  6. Pan-fried salmon with fennel & peas, step 6: Serving

    Serving

    Divide the risotto between plates, arrange the fennel and peas alongside and place the salmon on top.

Tip:
Use trout or char fillets instead of salmon and reduce the oven time to approx. 6 mins.
