Tender wild salmon fillet is baked in the oven at a low temperature on a bed of leeks, which are pre-baked separately for a few minutes before topping the fish, rubbed with olive oil and salt. Serve the finished dish with boiled fingerling or small new potatoes. A special touch is a mixture of butter, shallots, chives, tarragon, and parsley. Place a pat of herb butter on the hot fish and freshly boiled potatoes, and enjoy the delicious aromas and vibrant flavors.
