Method
0 of 8 done- Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Season the salmon fillet with salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a size that can fully enclose the salmon, approximately 20cm x 20cm.
- Brush the top side of the salmon with Dijon mustard. Place the salmon, mustard side down, in the centre of the pastry.
- Fold the pastry over the salmon, ensuring it is sealed well. Trim any excess pastry and then crimp the edges to secure.
- Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the pastry to give it a golden finish when baked.
- Place the salmon en croûte on the prepared baking tray. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables.
