Cheesy salmon and broccoli bake

Serves: 6

Ingredients

  • 400g pasta shells, ½ cooked
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 broccoli
  • 2 tbsp bread crumbs
  • 40g butter
  • 40g flour
  • 570ml milk
  • 200g mature cheddar cheese, grated
  • Fresh seasoning
  • Pinch cayenne pepper and nutmeg

Method

Start this recipe by ½ cooking the pasta shells. Meanwhile, make the cheese sauce by putting the milk, flour and butter in a medium sized saucepan and heating gently. As the milk starts to warm up, take a balloon whisk and gently start whisking the sauce. When the milk boils, the sauce will begin to thicken and become glossy. Turn down the heat, and continue to cook, just for a couple of minutes. Turn off the heat, add 150g of the grated cheddar cheese, a pinch of cayenne pepper and nutmeg, season to taste with salt and pepper and mix well. Next, you will need to cut the broccoli into small florets and blanch them in hot water for a few minutes, keeping them green and crunchy. You will also need to poach the salmon too, again only for a few minutes. When the salmon is ready, remove the skin and any bones and discard. Gently flake the flesh with a fork. In a large bowl, put in the cooked pasta, broccoli florets, poached salmon and cheese sauce and gently mix together. Pour the mixture into a large oven proof dish and sprinkle the remaining 50g of grated cheddar cheese. Finally, sprinkle the bread crumbs over top. Bake in the oven for just 15 minutes, or till the sauce is bubbling and the cheese on top is golden brown.

Ingredients

  • 400g għaġin bebbuxi, b’nofs sajran
  • 4 fletti tas-salamun
  • brokkola
  • 2 mgħaref frak tal-ħobż
  • 40g butir
  • 40g dqiq

Method

Ibda billi tagħti nofs sajran lill-għaġin bebbuxi. Sadattant, lesti z-zalza tal-ġobon billi titfa’ l-ħalib, id-dqiq u l-butir f’kazzola mdaqqsa u saħħan fuq nar baxx. Kif jibda jisħon il-ħalib, ibda ħabbat iz-zalza ħafif ħafif b’ħabbata tal-ikel. Meta l-ħalib jagħli, iz-zalza tibda tagħqad u ssir tleqq. Baxxi aktar in-nar u ħalli t-taħlita ttektek għal ftit minuti oħra. Itfi n-nar, żid 150g ġobon Cheddar maħkuk u niskata filfel u noċemuskata. Ħawwar bil-bżar u l-melħ u ħawwad tajjeb. Imbagħad qatta’ l-brokkoli fi fjuretti żgħar u itfagħhom f’ilma jagħli għal ftit minuti biex jibqgħu ħodor u jqarmċu. Għalli wkoll il-biċċiet tas-salamun għal ftit minuti u meta jkunu lesti, neħħilhom il-ġilda u x-xewk. Farrak is-salamun b’furketta. Fi skutella kbira, poġġi l-għaġin imsajjar, il-fjuretti tal-brokkoli, is-salamun u z-zalza tal-ġobon u ħawwad bil-mod. Ixħet it-taħlita f’dixx tal-forn u ferrex il-50g ġobon maħkuk li jkun fadal. Fl-aħħar ferrex il-frak tal-ħobż fil-wiċċ. Sajjar fil-forn għal 15-il minuta jew sakemm iz-zalza tkun qed tbaqbaq u l-ġobon tal-wiċċ ikun ħmar.
