Ingredients

Directions

  1. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux, stirring constantly.
  3. Gradually pour in the light cream while whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
  5. Stir in the grated cheddar cheese, sherry, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until the cheese is fully melted and smooth.
  6. Remove the sauce from heat and set aside.
  7. Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).
  8. Gently roll up the salmon fillets and secure each one with a toothpick.
  9. Place a rack in a greased baking dish and arrange the salmon rolls on the rack.
  10. Sprinkle the grated onion, lemon juice, white pepper, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt over the salmon.
  11. Pour the 1/2 cup of melted butter evenly over the top of the salmon rolls.
  12. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
  13. Pour the prepared cheese sauce over the baked salmon.
  14. Place the dish under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is lightly browned and bubbly.
  15. Remove from oven, discard toothpicks, and serve immediately.
