Saumon en papillote... even though the “en papillote” can sound quite fancy, this cooking method is super easy and amazingly tasty as it allows the flavours of the salmon and the herbs to infuse and develop wonderfully.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 80 g cream cheese
  • herbes de Provence or Thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200ºC.
  2. Put each salmon filet in the middle of a sheet of parchment paper or aluminium foil. Make sure you use enough parchment paper/aluminium foil to wrap around the entire filet.
  3. Cover with the salmon with a layer of cream cheese and sprinkle with your herbs.
  4. Wrap your salmon with the paper/foil to shape/seal the parcel.
  5. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of your fillets.

Recipe Notes

I personally find it easier to use aluminium foil.
