He looks so beautiful: Our finished salmon served on the plate. How do you get such a great result?
Fish is not meat – the cooking times in the pan are short. That’s why you never leave the stove when roasting fish, otherwise dry fish on the plate is in danger!
2. Salmon Side Dishes
A salmon fillet tolerates many side dishes. In my cooking suggestion below I show you step by step how to prepare a potato and cabbage puree and cauliflower florets with butter crumbs. Other matching side dishes I show you in this table. Have fun combining!| Satiating Side Dish | Mashed potatoes, Parsley potatoes, Celery puree, Fried potatoes, Saffron risotto, Mushroom risotto, Tagliatelle |

2.2 Cauliflower Florets with Breadcrumbs and Butter
Your fish fillet is grateful, because it harmonizes with many vegetables. It is important that the fine aroma of the fish is not “killed” in the vegetable side dishes. I would therefore always recommend a vegetable with a light taste, such as asparagus, savoy cabbage, Brussels sprouts and, of course, cauliflower. I will show you how to prepare cauliflower in the recipe section below. I used white cauliflower. Just as suitable is the green Romanesco or a purple cauliflower.3. This Way to the Recipe

Instruction
Peel 300g potatoes and rinse briefly under running water. Cut the potatoes into small pieces and cook in salted water for 15-20 minutes. Then drain.
Clean and wash the cauliflower and cut the florets roughly from the stalk. Cook the cauliflower in salted water for 8-10 minutes, depending on the size of the florets. Then drain.
Put half of the cauliflower florets in a bowl or pot with the soft boiled potatoes. Keep the rest of the cauliflower florets warm.
Add 100 ml cream, 2 tablespoons butter, grated nutmeg, saffron threads and salt. Mix the mashed potatoes with a mixer.
Rinse the fish under cold water and pat dry. Season each fish with a pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper (black or white).
Heat rapeseed oil in the pan. Place the salmon fillets in the pan and reduce the temperature slightly. Add 1 tablespoon clarified butter. Depending on the thickness of the fish fillets, fry the salmon hot on each side for approx. 4 minutes.
Fry 2 tbsp. clarified butter or butter parallel to the salmon in a pan and fry 4 tbsp. breadcrumbs. Spread the mashed potatoes/cauliflower on warm plates and drape the salmon on top. Add the remaining cauliflower florets to the plate and add the roasted breadcrumbs. Enjoy your meal!
