Ingredients
 

  • 30 g butter
  • 4 cloves garlic - chopped
  • 1 large onion - chopped
  • 250 g baby spinach - add more if you want
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 35 g breadcrumb
  • 115 g cream cheese
  • 30 g parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill (optional) - chopped
  • 2 sheets frozen puff pastry - thawed in chiller before use
  • 2 skiness salmon fillets - boneless
  • 1 tsp salt - 1/2tsp for one salmon fillet
  • 2 tsp pepper - 1tsp for one salmon fillet
  • 1 egg - lightly beaten (egg wash)

Instructions
 

  • In a pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add  onion, saute for a few minutes and drop in chopped garlic, continue cooking until onion till soft.
  • Add the spinach, salt and pepper, cooking for about 2 minutes. Add the breadcrumbs, cream cheese, parmesan cheese and dill, stirring until mixture is evenly combined. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • On a table top, smooth out the puff pastry sheet (dust some flour beneath puff pastry). Place the salmon fillet in the middle of the pastry and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place half of spinach mixture on top of the salmon fillet, smoothing it out so that it does not spill over the sides.
  • Brush the edges of the puff pastry with egg wash and fold the edges of the puff pastry over the salmon and spinach.  Place seam sides down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat for the remaining spinach mixture to the second piece of salmon fillet. 
  • Using a sharp knife, make crosshatch slits on top of the pastry. Brush the egg wash on top of the pastry.
  • Bake in preheated oven (second lower rack) at 220 deg C for about 25-30 minutes, until pastry is golden brown.
