  • butter for greasing
  • salt and black pepper
  • watercress sprigs to garnish

  • 1 1/4 cups (300 ml) light cream
  • 1 1/2 cups (60 g) watercress, tough stalks removed
  • 6 tbsp (90 g) butter, melted
  • 1 tsp all-purpose flour
  • juice of l lemon
  • 1 egg yolk

STEPS :

  1. Divide the salmon into 6 pieces
  2. Butter a roasting pan. Arrange the salmon pieces in a single layer and sprinkle with black pepper.
  3. Cover tightly with foil, and bake in a 350°F (l80°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
