Vol-au-vent with fresh salmon, a starter perfect for the holiday season. You prepare them with very few ingredients and everyone will love them, especially because they look impressive!
Of course, I prepared them with ready-made vol-au-vent I bought at the supermarket. If you feel like it, you can make the puff pastry and make them at home, but during this period, with work and home, I have a lot to do, so I decided to buy them.
These vol-au-vent are ideal for Christmas, but also for a buffet or a drink with friends, not necessarily during the holidays. You can serve them with some olives and a good glass of prosecco.

Steps: Vol-au-vent with Fresh Salmon
First, take care of the salmon fillet: remove the skin and cook it in a pan, with a drizzle of oil and cover, over medium heat for about ten minutes. Let it cool completely and flake it with a fork. Keep some small pieces aside for decoration.
Now blend the salmon with the cream cheese until you achieve the desired consistency.
At this point, fill the vol-au-vent with the cream, add a piece of reserved salmon, and a sprinkle of pepper.
