Ingredients:

Seasoning The Salmon
7 oz. Salmon
1/2 tsp. Salt
Cook The Asparagus
1 Qt Water
6 oz. Asparagus
1/2 tsp. Salt
Cook The Salmon
1 cup White Wine
1/4 cup Vegetable Stock
Cook The Potatoes
1 Qt Water
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 lb. Potatoes
1/4 tsp. Ground Black Pepper
Sauce
1 tbsp. Butter
1 tbsp. Yellow Onion
1 clove Garlic, Minced
1/2 cup White Wine
2 tbsp. Heavy Cream
1/8 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Chives

Directions:

Step 1

Remove the skin of the salmon.

Step 2

Prep the Salmon: Begin by seasoning the salmon with salt and let it rest for about five minutes, allowing the salt to penetrate and season the fish evenly.

Step 3

Blanch the Asparagus: Remove any tough ends from the asparagus. Blanch them in boiling water for four minutes, then immediately transfer to ice water. This method ensures the asparagus is cooked yet retains its crispiness.

Step 4

Cook the Salmon: Line a pan with baking paper, placing the salmon on top. Add white wine and vegetable stock until the liquid reaches halfway up the fish. Cover and cook over medium heat on the stovetop.

Step 5

Boil the Potatoes: Simultaneously, boil the potatoes in a separate pot until tender.

Step 6

Prepare the Sauce: In a different saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing until translucent. Pour in white wine, let it simmer to cook off the alcohol, then stir in heavy cream and a pinch of salt, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Combine Vegetables and Sauce: Peel the boiled potatoes and add them along with the blanched asparagus to the creamy sauce, stirring gently to combine.
