Method
Preparation
Prepare the Preserved Tomatoes
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Toss the cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and balsamic vinegar. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 1 hour until soft and slightly caramelized.
Make the Beurre Blanc
In a saucepan, combine shallots and white wine. Simmer until reduced by half. Add the heavy cream and reduce further. Gradually whisk in the butter, and finally add truffle oil. Keep warm.
Prepare the Mashed Potatoes
Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender. Drain and return to pot. Add butter and heavy cream, then mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Cooking the Salmon
Cook the Salmon
Season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and chopped fresh herbs. Heat a pan over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Assembly
Plate the Dish
