Shell the fresh peas and steam them for 20 minutes. Season lightly with salt. - 🌿 Prepare the Thyme Broth:
Bring 30 cl (1 1/4 cups) of water to a boil with the vegetable bouillon cube and 1/4 of the thyme. Remove from heat and let the mixture infuse. - 🥓 Wrap the Salmon:
Cut each slice of ham lengthwise. Wrap each salmon fillet with a strip of ham, securing it with kitchen twine to create medallions. - 🔥 Cook the Medallions:

In a small bowl, mix the heavy cream with the cornstarch. Add this mixture to the thyme-infused broth in a saucepan. Heat gently, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens. - 🍽️ Assemble and Serve:
Divide the steamed peas among six plates. Top with the creamy thyme sauce and place a salmon medallion on each plate. Sprinkle with the remaining thyme leaves and serve immediately.
