Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat and add the onion, fennel, carrot, celery and cook for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and rice and cook for 1 minute more. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until it has bubbled off.
  2. Once the wine has cooked off, add a couple of ladles of the warm salmon poaching liquid and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has bubbled off, keep repeating this process until all the liquid has been used up and the rice is al dente. Stir in the flaked salmon, butter, Parmesan and tarragon. Serve immediately.
    • Please note that 200g (7oz) of salmon is not included in the shop ingredients list as this is a leftover, so you will need to enter the product in your shopping basket if making this recipe from scratch.
