A pivotal Christian thinker of our time once said, “Joy is the surest sign of the presence of God... The bottom line for you and me is simply this: grimness is not a Christian virtue. There are no sad saints. If God really is the center of one's life and being, joy is inevitable. If we have no joy, we have missed the heart of the Good News and our bodies as much as our souls will suffer the consequences.”

LIME AND BASIL PESTO

STIR-FRY MIXTURE
POTATO GNOCCHI
GARNISH
Pesto: Mix together the crushed garlic and olive oil, then mix in the
chopped coriander, parsley, basil and lime zest. Add the freshly ground
pepper. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and keep aside.
Sauce: In a saucepan, bring the fish stock to the boil over medium heat.
Add the cream and simmer for about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat
and keep aside.
Pierce the lemon grass stick through the salmon steak crosswise. Season the
salmon with salt and freshly ground pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a
non-stick pan. Place the salmon into the pan and brown on both sides.
Transfer the pan with the salmon into a preheated oven 180C/350F/gas 4 for
approximately 6-8 minutes depending on thickness. When cooked, remove from
the oven and keep in a warm place.
To finish off, using the same pan with the remaining vegetable oil, add the
red peppers, garlic and wild mushrooms and stir-fry for approximately 1
minute. Remove from the pan and keep aside. Using the same pan, add the
gnocchi and brown slightly. Add the spring onion. Then mix in the
vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Dress the stir-fry mixture on a
serving dish and place the escalope of salmon on top.
Bring the sauce to the boil, remove from the heat and whisk in the pesto.
Season with salt and either pour around the gnocchi, or serve separately.
Garnish with the fresh basil.
Potato gnocchi: Steam the potato in its skin or bake in the oven until
cooked. Pass through a potato ricer onto a marble top. Spread on the
mixture, add the salt and sprinkle with the flour and Parmesan cheese.
Add the egg yolk and butter and mix gently with your hands. Roll into
finger thick strips and cut into 1 1/2 inch long pieces. Cook in boiling
water and refresh. Drain off water. Serve with all of the above.
