Instructions
Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with water and add 1 Tbsp. salt. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
While potatoes are cooking, line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Place salmon fillets on foil, skin side down.
Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until just opaque in center, 14 to 16 minutes.
Remove from oven and loosely tent with foil to keep warm.
Drain potatoes and return to pot. Mash over low heat until smooth. Stir in sour cream, milk and dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately with salmon.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Salmon on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The 7Cellars Elway's Reserve Chardonnay with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 28 dollars per bottle.
