Defrost the seafood for 6 minutes on 600 W, stirring
several times. Drain and keep the liquid, adding 250 ml
milk to it. Chop the shallots, the carrot and the mushrooms
and cook this mixture in a bowl, covered, with 30 g of
1 carrot,
butter for 5 minutes on MAX. Add 2 to 3 heaped tbsp of
flour and cook again for 40 seconds on MAX, then add the
30 g butter,
milk and cooking juice from the seafood. Cook this sauce
flour,
for 5 to 7 minutes on MAX. (if the sauce does not seem
thick enough, you can correct it by adding 1 tbsp of
cornflour mixed with white wine). Add the dill and one
tablespoon of fruity white wine, check the seasoning and
mix with the seafood. Pour the mixture into the baking dish.
Sprinkle with grated cheese; put into the oven on the Wire
Rack and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on Combination mode:
Grill 2 + 250W.
Cook the fresh salmon for 5 minutes on 600W, covered.
Leave to cool. Meanwhile, cut the butter into cubes and
bring it to a creamy consistency by warming at 440W for 2
to 3 minutes (it should not melt). Cut the smoked salmon
into small cubes or chop finely. Remove the skin and
bones from the cooked salmon, break up the fish and mix it
with the butter, smoked salmon, olive oil and boiled egg
yolk, crumbled. Mix well. Season to taste with salt, pepper
and lemon juice. Put the mixture into a terrine tin or mould
into oblongs using 2 tablespoons and put in the fridge to
set for 1 to 2 hours.
NB: If you prefer, you can also put the mixture into the food
processor. This will save time, but the consistency will be
more like a fish mousse than potted fish.
