Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams canned red salmon (drained and flaked)
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium yellow onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 large egg (beaten for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt the butter in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and stir well, cooking for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly, creating a smooth and creamy sauce. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
Stir in the flaked red salmon, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
Unroll one sheet of puff pastry onto the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the salmon mixture onto the center, leaving a 2.5 cm (1-inch) border around the edges.
Brush the border with beaten egg, then place the second sheet of puff pastry on top. Press the edges firmly together to seal, and crimp with a fork for decoration, if desired.
Using a sharp knife, cut a few small slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape during baking.
Brush the entire top surface with the remaining beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pie sit for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
