Salmon with fried shallot mashed potatoes from The Modern Proper: Simple Recipes Meant to Be Shared (page 196) by Holly Erickson and Natalie Mortimer

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    We liked this. I often make salmon for dinner so I’m always looking for new ways to serve it. This is a good one. The shallot-infused oil and resulting fried shallots are used in every part of this dish and it works. The mashed potatoes are incredibly rich, and obviously delish because of that. I heated the milk in the microwave before adding it. Will and have made it again. My finicky sister asked for the recipe after having it.

    This recipe is all about the fried shallots, they lend some interest to what is really just plain baked salmon with mashed potatoes and a green veg (don't need a recipe for that). The recipe calls for 2 sticks of butter in the potatoes and I cut that down to about 2 tablespoons as that is a ridiculous amount of butter (maybe a misprint?). That all said, it was fine, not super special and will not likely be made again.
