Whether you are cooking salmon or just learning how to cook fish, I prefer to soak it in a little salt water to remove some of the “fishy” taste.

SALMON AND SWEET POTATO BAKE

• 2 pounds sweet potatoes, cooked


• 2 Cups low fat milk


• 2 ½ Tablespoons cornstarch


• 1 Small onion finely minced


• ¾ Teaspoon thyme


• ½ Teaspoon salt


• ¼ Teaspoon black pepper


• 1 Pound salmon fillets


• ¼ Cup plain bread crumbs


• 1/8 Teaspoon ground red pepper


• 1 Tablespoon butter cut into pieces


• 2 Tablespoons grated parmesan

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Grease a 7x9 inch baking pan

Lay peeled and drained sweet potatoes in the bottom of the prepared pan.

In a medium saucepan, whisk the milk slowly into the cornstarch. Add the onion, thyme, salt and pepper and mix.

Place on medium heat and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Reduce heat and stir until mixture has thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Mix together the bread crumbs and red pepper.

Cut the salmon into 1 inch pieces.

Lay the salmon on top of the sweet potatoes.

Spread the sauce evenly over the sweet potatoes and salmon.

Sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly over the sauce.

Dot the crumbs with the butter.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until fish is done.

Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and return to oven 1 to 2 minutes longer.

SALMON STEAKS

• 1 Pound salmon steaks


• 2 Tablespoon orange juice


• ¼ Cup soy sauce


• 1 Clove minced garlic


• 1 Tablespoon butter

Mix together in a saucepan the orange juice, soy sauce, garlic and butter.

Cook on medium heat until mixture becomes a little thickened. Set of to cool.

Pat fish with paper towel to dry.

Spread the mixture evenly on both sides of the salmon.

Cover the fish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cooking.

Bake salmon for about 15 minutes or until fish becomes flaky.
