Equipment

  • Sushi Knife
  • parchment paper
  • baking sheet

Ingredients
  

Fish

  • 1.5 lb Skinless boneless salmon fillet
  • Salt and pepper

Filling

  • 8 cups Baby Spinach packed
  • ¼ cup Chopped Onion
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 cup Ricotta drained

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper, set aside.
  • Chop baby spinach.
  • In a large pan, saute onion in olive oil until soft and translucent.
  • Add spinach to the pan, cook until it’s wilted and the resulting water has cooked off. Remove from heat.
  • Mix together Ricotta, Feta, dill, lemon zest, green onion slices, and garlic powder. Add spinach, season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Once you’re happy with the flavour, mix in the egg until well combined.
  • Spread mixture over the salmon.
  • Starting from one of the short sides, roll salmon tightly, going up the length of it.
  • Wrap in parchment paper, or the butcher type paper the fish came in, if applicable. Place in freezer for 1 hour, to firm up a little - this will make it easier to cut.
  • Preheat oven to 400 F, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Unwrap salmon roll, slice into 6 servings, and secure end of each with a toothpick. Arrange on prepared baking sheet.
  • Cook for 18-20 minutes, until cooked through.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

A sushi knife makes for easier slicing! If you have a thick piece of salmon, you can butterfly it to make it easier to roll - see the post for details.
