Directions
Scallop & Herb Mousse: process scallops, egg whites, herbs and SIDS SALT & PEPPER in a blender until smooth. Sauté a little to check seasoning.
Split salmon fillet in half lengthwise and season with SIDS CRAZY LEMON. Pipe scallop mousse onto one half of the salmon then place the other half of the fillet on top to form a sandwich. Wrap tightly in prosciutto and then in cling film the refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 180oC.
Remove salmon from cling film and brown in a sauté pan until even colour all over. Finish in oven for 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes. Add capers to pan and squeeze over lemon juice.
Citrus & Black Pepper Dressing: blitz together all the ingredients.
Slice salmon into 8 pieces, allowing 2 per plate. Place fennel, capers and cress in a mixing bowl and toss with dressing, reserving some for drizzling on the plate. Arrange on serving plates next to the salmon with a drizzle of dressing.
