*Baked Salmon & Asparagus Casserole*
Looking for an elegant yet easy dinner idea? This baked salmon and asparagus casserole is layered with creamy potatoes and cooked right in a springform pan for a beautiful presentation! Perfect for any special occasion, this dish combines fresh asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, buttery salmon, and a rich herb cream sauce with tender potatoes. Whether you’re hosting brunch or planning a stunning dinner, this casserole will wow your guests.
_Ingredients:_
– 6 lbs white asparagus, peeled
– 5 lbs potatoes, peeled
– 2 lbs salmon
– ½ cup herb butter, melted
– 2½ cups heavy cream
– salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 pinch of nutmeg
– 14 oz prosciutto
1. Trim the asparagus to match the height of an 11-inch springform pan, setting aside the ends for later. Wrap each trimmed asparagus spear in prosciutto.
2. Stand the wrapped spears upright around the inside edge of the springform pan to form a border, as shown in the video.
3. Cut the salmon into large pieces and layer them in the center of the pan. Brush the melted herb butter over the layer of salmon.
4. In a saucepan, bring the heavy cream and leftover asparagus ends to a boil. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Once the asparagus pieces are soft, blend everything until smooth.
5. Thinly slice the potatoes using a mandolin or sharp knife. Add the slices to the hot cream mixture and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thick and creamy.
6. Layer the creamy potatoes on top of the salmon. Transfer the springform pan to the oven and bake at 350°F for 1 hour. Once it’s done baking, remove the casserole from the oven, then let it sit for 30 minutes before serving.
