Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams salmon fillet
- 200 grams asparagus spears
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 4 large eggs
- 200 milliliters heavy cream
- 50 grams grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Place the salmon fillet on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until just cooked through. Set aside to cool, then flake into bite-sized pieces.
Trim the tough ends off the asparagus spears and blanch them in boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Transfer immediately to an ice bath to stop cooking, then pat dry and set aside.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish, pressing it into the sides. Trim any excess pastry hanging over the edges.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, grated parmesan cheese, fresh dill, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.
Layer the flaked salmon and blanched asparagus spears evenly in the prepared pie crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the filling, ensuring it spreads evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the pie to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
