Dust 2 6 oz fillets of salmon with flour. Shake off excess flour. In a
saute pan, heat clarified butter. Add fillets, and brown on one side; turn.
Add garlic, shallots, red peppers and chopped cilantro and mushrooms. With
fillets still in pan, deglaze with dry sherry. Add fish stock. Reduce over
hight heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add cream. Reduce until sauce thickens.
Remove salmon to heated serving plate. To the sauce still in the pan, add
2 to 3 Tablespoons Madeira. Cook only a minute more, long enough to
evaporate the alcohol. Lace salmon with sauce, garnish with a dollop of
creme fraiche and a sprig of cilantro.
