This dish is also commonly known as Salmon Wellington. For many families, Salmon en croute seats at the center of festivities and provides a lovely centrepiece.

    Ingredients

    • 4 skinless salmon fillets
    • 2 packs ready-rolled puff pastry
    • 1 egg, lightly beaten
    • 1 teaspoon butter
    • 100g baby spinach
    • 180g full-fat cream cheese
    • 1 garlic clove, minced
    • 1 teaspoon chopped chives
    • salt and pepper to taste

    Method

    • Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan. Lay the fish fillets flat on the work surface, skin down. Season with salt and pepper.

    • Combine 1 tsp of butter and baby spinach in a saucepan over high heat. Stir until spinach has wilted.

    • Place spinach in a bowl and mix in cream cheese and garlic. Season to taste. Place mixture over the salmon and roll up.

    • Place salmon rolls in the fridge for 10 minutes.

    • Unroll the puff pastry, then cut the pastry in half. Put one salmon fillet on one side of each rectangle, creating a parcel.

    • Brush each rectangle with egg wash.

    • Crimp the edges together. With the tip of a sharp knife, slash the top of each pouch to allow the steam to escape.

    • Place the parcels on a baking tray and bake for 25 minutes.

    • Eat while still hot.

    • Serving Suggestions: Serve with hollandaise flavoured with freshly chopped dill. Or, you may choose to serve with potato wedges, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, potato salad or any green salad.
