Step 1
To create this delicious salmon en croute recipe, first pre-heat your oven to 190*c or gas mark 5.
Step 2
Boil the broccoli in water for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water and then drain again.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl add the cream cheese, mustard, lemon zest and chopped parsley and mix together.
Step 4
Unroll the pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Arrange the salmon along one edge of the pastry leaving a 3 cm border at one edge and at the two ends so when you fold over the pastry you have room to seal the filling in.
Step 5
Divide the broccoli over the salmon and then spoon over the cheese mix, smoothing off the top.
Step 6
Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg. Fold over the pastry and gently press the edge to seal in the filling, trim off any excess pastry and place onto a greased baking sheet. Brush the top with the remaining egg and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until the pastry has puffed and become golden.
