    Did this for friends and we really enjoyed it. I left out the Pernod and the parsley! Quite a rich recipe. I should have allowed the wine to reduce for longer. On the whole very enjoyable.

    This was easy to make and yummy. Used double the amount of salmon as i didn't have any prawns and also left out the pernod. Added some of the cream to the mashed potato and a bit of parmesan.

    I made this dish a couple of weeks ago and my boyfriend and his mate said that is was of 'restaurant' quality! I used 3 shallots instead of 2, 2 leeks instead of 1 and 3 cloves of garlic instead of 2! I also used a few left over mushrooms I had in the fridge. Instead of Cream I used a reduced fat creme fraiche which worked absolutely fine and wasn't so rich. I also used a bit for the mash, as well as a bit of parsley and plenty of pepper. To finish off the dish i added a small scatter of reduced fat cheese over the top to give it a nice crisp look. We enjoyed it so much I'm cooking it again tonight, but this time I'm trying it with spinach with the original portions of shallots and leeks. x
