Ingredients:

For the Salmon Spinach Roulettes:

2 salmon fillets (skinless, 200g each)

2 cups fresh spinach

100g cream cheese

1 garlic clove (minced)

Salt and pepper (to taste)

1 tsp lemon zest

Olive oil for searing

For the Potato Cakes:

4 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or similar, grated)

1 small onion (grated)

2 eggs (beaten)

3 tbsp all-purpose flour

Salt and pepper (to taste)

2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)

2 tbsp butter + 2 tbsp olive oil (for frying)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Salmon Spinach Roulettes

1. Sauté Spinach: In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté spinach and garlic until wilted. Set aside to cool slightly.

2. Mix Filling: Combine sautéed spinach, cream cheese, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.

3. Roll Salmon: Lay out the salmon fillets, spread the spinach mixture on top, and roll them tightly. Secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

4. Sear Salmon Rolls: Heat olive oil in a pan and sear the rolls for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden. Transfer to a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 10 minutes.

Step 2: Make the Potato Cakes

1. Grate and Drain: Grate the potatoes and onion. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible using a clean kitchen towel.

2. Mix Batter: In a bowl, mix grated potatoes, onions, beaten eggs, flour, parsley, salt, and pepper.

3. Fry Potato Cakes: Heat butter and olive oil in a nonstick pan. Scoop small portions of the potato mixture (about 2 tbsp) and flatten into patties. Fry for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

Step 3: Assemble the Dish

1. Place a crispy potato cake on a plate as the base.

2. Stack a salmon roulette on top of the potato cake.

3. Optionally, drizzle with a lemon butter sauce or garnish with fresh herbs.
