- This salmon recipe is one of my all time favourites. It was created by Andrew Jefls who was head chef at Nico Central for 3 years having previously worked with us at Chez Nico for a number of years. He has a particular ability to bring out the inherent taste of food without oversalting. Very few people understand this basic premise.
- Although I am not generally in favour of mixing French cuisine with Oriental cooking I find this dish very light and fresh as well as fiJI of flavour. As salmon has a very strong flavour of its own it can support a marriage with spicier ingredients.
