The combination of tender salmon, fresh cucumber sauce and a crisp, flaky crust makes this impressive dish perfect for special occasions. Mom likes to decorate the pastry with a star or leaf design for holidays. Ingredients:
2 packages (17.3 ounces each) frozen puff pastry, thawed |
8 salmon fillets (6 ounces each), skin removed |
1 egg |
1 tablespoon water |
2 cups shredded cucumber |
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon dill weed |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. On a lightly floured surface, roll each pastry sheet into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Cut each into two 10-in. x 6-in. rectangles. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each rectangle.
2. Beat egg and water; lightly brush over pastry edges. Bring opposite corners of pastry over each fillet; pinch seams to seal tightly. Place seam side down in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan; brush with remaining egg mixture.
3. Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until pastry is golden brown. In a small bowl, combine the cucumber, sour cream, mayonnaise, dill and salt. Serve with bundles. Yield: 8 servings.
