  • About
A pillow is a piece of fillet in which a pocket is cut to contain a stuffing. Any thick, firm fish, like the salmon shown here, can he used. Cut fillets into 7.5 x 4 cm pieces to accommodate the stuffing. Because they are fragile, pillows are best poached.

  1. Starting and ending 1 cm in from each side, cut a pocket in the front of the fillet (do not cut through the back, top or bottom).

  2. Hold the pocket open with one hand and spoon the stuffing into the pocket. Do not overfill or the stuffing may burst out during cooking.

  3. Secure the opening by tying a strip of spring onion around it. The pillow is now reach for cooking.
