Salmon in Tarragon Sauce

• Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
• Pick the tarragon leaves from their stalks and finely chop (discard the stalks).
• Take one egg (per 2P) and separate the yolk from the white (you can use the egg white later).

TIP: You'll be using the egg yolk raw, so use very fresh eggs to make the sauce.

• Place a small pot over medium-high heat with 2 tbsp butter (per 2P). 
• Add the shallot and cook for 2-3 mins.
• Add the tarragon and cook for 2 mins more. Remove the pot from the heat.
• Meanwhile, make a dressing with half the vinegar and a drizzle of oil.
• Just before serving toss the salad leaves with the dressing and season to taste with salt and pepper. 

• Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. Season the fish with salt and pepper.
• Once hot, place the salmon skin-side down and cook for 4-5 mins, then turn and cook for 3-4 mins on the other side, until cooked through. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish. Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.
• Once cooked, remove from pan and cover to keep warm.

• Add the egg yolk, half a mustard sachet (per 2P) and remaining vinegar to the pot with the shallot.
• Return the pot to low heat (as low as possible so as not to cook the egg yolk) and mix vigorously for 2-3 mins until the sauce thickens.
• Remove from the heat and stir in 1 tbsp water (per 2P) and a good drizzle of oil.
• Add a splash of water the sauce is too thick, you want a smooth sauce that coats the back of a spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
