Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roasted Garlic Aioli

    In a bowl, mash the roasted garlic cloves and mix them with the mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add cold water to create a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Fry the Salmon

    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Dip each salmon fillet into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place in the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the applewood bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the Texas toast slices until golden brown. On the bottom slice, layer lettuce, fried salmon, bacon, and tomato slices. Spread a generous amount of roasted garlic aioli on the top slice and place it on top to complete the sandwich.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Salmon BLT with a side of fries.
