Ingredients
60ml extra virgin olive oil
2 red onions, cut into 5mm wedges
4 bay leaves
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
small pinch of saffron threads
1 large carrot, peeled and cut into thin rounds
250ml white-wine vinegar
250ml dry white wine
salt and pepper
250ml water
4 x 130g salmon fillets, skin on and pin-boned
2 tbsp parsley, roughly chopped
Method
1. Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot over a medium heat. Add the onions, bay leaves, garlic and saffron. Cover and cook gently, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
2. Add the carrot and cover, cook for 15 minutes.
3. Add the vinegar, wine, salt and pepper and water. Bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes.
4. Add the salmon and cook for 6-8 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve with some of the cooking liquor and vegetables. Sprinkle with parsley and a little sea salt.
TIP: Once the salmon is cooked it can be chilled in the cooking liquid and served cold later with aioli.
