Scottish Salmon En Croute

What is it?

Scottish salmon fillet sits inside puff pastry with a herb and cream cheese filling, then it’s baked until the pastry turns crisp and layered. In M&S’s frozen meals range, it sits closer to a fish centrepiece than a standard ready meal, with the salmon enclosed rather than topped or sauced. Expect a neat portion of fish, soft filling, and a pastry shell that should stay flaky around the edges. It’s the kind of format that’s usually cooked from frozen, so the pastry and fish finish at the same time.
