I think this the most elegant dinner we have done to date. Rich in butter and salt no doubt too...tasted like gold.
This is what I did:
Jerusalem artichoke and potato mash:
Peel and cut fresh artichokes(1/2 lb.) in cubes. Cook in a little milk and butter with a whole garlic clove and 2 small scallions in chunks. Cook on low till milk has been cooked into the chokes and they are soft and are starting to get a golden color. Mix in food processor then blend into regular mash potatoes with a spoon. Salt and pepper to taste. Place this on the plate first.
Top mash with a slab of sauteed cauliflower (cut slices of the entire tree so you get think gorgeous slab, sautee in lots of butter)
Then add the grilled filets of salmon...just lightly peppered and grilled. Place in oven a few minutes to cook through if desired.
Pour a little browned butter over the entire plate. (Melt butter then keep on medium heat till it starts turning golden brown and has a nutty delicious taste)
Enjoy!
