Instructions: Season each fillet with salt and cracked black pepper. In a shallow bowl combine oats, cinnamon, nutmeg and pepper. Coat each fillet with oat mixture. In a skillet heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over moderately high heat until almost smoking, cook fillets until oats are golden brown.

Transfer fillets to baking sheet and transfer to a 350 degree F. oven for 12 to 15 minutes.

In the same skillet saute the shallots in the remaining olive oil until tender. Add the red ale and simmer until 3/4 of the liquid has evaporated.

Add the malt vinegar, fish stock and reduce by half. Add the lemon thyme leaves. Reduce heat to low and swirl in butter, one piece at a time, until incorporated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve warm oat-crusted salmon with "beer blanc".

Yield: 4 servings
