Season the salmon filets (or fish if using) on either side with salt and pepper, and sear within the hot pan, flesh-side down 1st, for five minutes on either side, or till braised to your feeling. Once braised, take away from the pan and put aside.

Pour within the vino (if using), and permit to scale back down slightly. Add the sun dried tomatoes and fry for 1-2 minutes to unleash their flavours.

• scale back heat to low heat, add the 0.5 and 0.5 (or serious cream), and produce to a mild simmer, whereas stirring sometimes. Season with salt and pepper to your style.

• Add within the spinach leaves and permit to wilt within the sauce, and add within the cheese cheese. enable sauce to simmer for an extra minute till cheese melts through the sauce. (For a thicker sauce, add the milk/cornstarch mixture to the centre of the pan, and still simmer whereas quickly stirring the mixture through till the sauce thickens.)

• Add the salmon into the pan; sprinkle with the parsley, and spoon the sauce over every filet.

• Serve over food, rice or steamed veg.
