General preparation
Cut the mushrooms in quarters. Cut the bacon into small pieces. Chop the chives. Peel the potatoes and cut into regular cubes.

Put the cubed potatoes to cook in cold salted water, bring to boil and cook about 15 minutes. Once the potatoes are tender, strain, mash and add butter, milk and chives. Season with salt and pepper.
Salmon steak with Burguignonne sauce preparation
In a pan, sweat the onions for 3 minutes with a dash of olive oil, butter, a pinch of salt and sugar in order to caramelize. Add the bacon, mushrooms and thyme and bay leaf and cook for 2 minutes. Add in the flour and cook a few minutes while stirring, then add the wine and fish stock. Simmer until it coats the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, season the salmon with salt and pepper and sear it skin side down in a hot pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Once the skin colors, place the fish on a baking sheet, skin side on top. Finish cooking in oven 4-6 minutes.
To serve
Serve the fork-mashed potatoes using a ring mold, then place the salmon fillet on the side. Generously coat with Burguignonne sauce.
