Preparation

Preparation of the Velouté sauce

Heat the butter in a saucepan and sauté the finely chopped shallots and garlic over a medium heat until translucent.
Add the flour and stir to make a roux.
Slowly stir the white wine and fish stock into the roux using a whisk to avoid lumps.
Let the mixture cook for at least 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens. Add a little water if the sauce thickens too much.
Season with salt, pepper and the zest of the organic lemon and keep warm.

Preparation of the salmon fillets

Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water, pat dry and season lightly with salt.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan. Fry the salmon fillets on the skin side over medium to high heat for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully turn the fillets over and fry for another 2-3 minutes until they are still slightly translucent on the inside.

Serving

Divide the velouté sauce between four preheated plates. Place a salmon fillet on each plate. Spread the salmon caviar generously over the salmon fillets and the velouté sauce and serve.

Tip: You can also use other varieties of Yarra Valley Premium Salmon Caviar, such as smoked caviar, to add an additional dimension of flavour to your dish.
