(YES!!! APPLE!!!)
lovely Julie Lao(she's currently looking for freinds please contact me for further details >_-) ====>
(PS the Fish is dedicate to her, It's a really really easy & simple recipe, you won't even need to turn the stove on!But somehow I think she'll still be too lazy to try to make it....)

Ingredients :

  • Sleeping with The Fish

    • Salmon Fillet - 2 pcs
    • dazzle of EVOO
    • 4 Table Spoon Dijon Mustard
    • 1/4 cup of Pinot Grigio
    • Juice of 1/2 lemon
    • Pinch of lemon zest
    • Salt & Pepper


  • How you like them Apples??

    • 1 whole sweet apple(cut into slices)
    • Fresh Rosemary(DO NOT USE THE STEM!!)
    • Butter
    • 1/4 cup Smirnoff apple vodka.( or other white wine)
    • salt & pepper


Step 1 -Sleeping W/ da fish
You might be thinking "Wait a second, I thought we suppose to use fillet why does the pic looks like a strip???" Well here's the answer " Wilson is broke as hell, so he can only afford the salmon strip instead of fillet.......but ideally fillet is a better fit for this dish." Anyways let us start the marinate. Mix EVOO, Dijon Mustard, Pinot Grigio and lemon juice in a bowl, season it with salt and pepper with own preference. Place the fish on a shallow dish and spread the marinate evenly on the fish, cover the fish up and let it sit for 30 mins to a hr. Tick Tack Tick Tack ...... times up!! Pre-heat the oven and then set it to 300 F. Place the fish into the oven, since I hate overcook salmon I would say you should only leave the fish in about 20-25 mins. Whooooray DONE!!! EASY ENOUGH right?

Step 2-How you like them Apples??
Cut apple into slices( about 1.5 inch thick)set them aside and chopped up the rosemary finely for the later use. Melt butter in a saute pan, and throw the apples in make sure code them with the butter evenly, set fire to med and toss chopped rosemary in and cover the lid for 5 mins. then add liquor, cook till fork tender and season it with salt(to own preference).



Step 3 - The Final Touch
I'm a Virgo therefore I'm pretty annal bout certain stuff, plating is definitely one of them. I'll do the plating even when I'm the only one eating ...ha, as far as I concern visual definitely will help the taste bud, anyways, see pic for the final touch!!!
