Salmon filet topped with savory creamy mayonnaise and flavorful roasted garlic. Ingredients:
1 lb salmon fillet |
1 cup mayonnaise |
5 garlic cloves |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Place salmon filet on a sheet of aluminium foil, or baking tray, flesh-side up. 2. Season salmon filet with salt (to taste) and set aside. 3. Chop garlic finely and mix into the cup of mayonnaise, stirring if necessary. 4. Using a butter knife or a spoon, spread the garlic-mayo mixture evenly on top of the filet, the spread should be about a 1/2cm thick throughout. 5. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees, and place the filet on the top rack, for 8-10 minutes, taking care not to overcook. 6. Turn the oven setting to Broil and keep a close eye on the garlic mayo spread; turn off the oven once the garlic and mayo start to brown evenly. 7. Season further with salt to taste. 8.
