The salmon with kiwi mayonnaise is a simple and tasty fish main course.
The salmon is simply cooked in a fragrant court-bouillon of water, wine, parsley, bay leaf, carrot, onion, and peppercorns and accompanied by a creamy mayonnaise made with kiwi.
I thought of cooking the fish in a very simple and low-calorie way to compensate for the richer mayonnaise, but if you prefer, you can prepare the salmon fillets in the oven or in a pan with little added fat…
It could also work for the upcoming Christmas Eve, what do you think??

FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE SALMON WITH KIWI MAYONNAISE RECIPE
FOR THE COURT-BOUILLON Peel the carrot and cut it into pieces. Peel the onion and cut it into wedges.
Put a saucepan with about one liter of water on the heat, to which you will add the carrot pieces, onion wedges, bay leaf, black peppercorns, parsley sprig, dry white wine, and 2/3 pinches of coarse salt.
At boiling, lower the heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
FOR COOKING THE SALMON Take the skinned salmon fillets/slices and place them in a pan (if you have one, in a fish kettle), pour the cold court-bouillon over them and slowly bring it almost to a boil.
Keep the water at this temperature and continue for about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the salmon cool in the liquid.
FOR THE KIWI MAYONNAISE Meanwhile, prepare the kiwi mayonnaise by placing the peeled kiwi slices in the immersion blender cup.
Add the basil and about half a glass of e.v.o oil.
Blend everything with the mixer, trying to incorporate air to make the mayonnaise nice and frothy.
Adjust the salt.
Compose the dish by serving the salmon with kiwi mayonnaise with some crunchy fennel rings.
Enjoy this simple and tasty fish main course!
