Instruction tip
Cooking tip:
No puff pastry? No worries! Cook salmon in a frying pan, then top with spinach mixture to serve.

Method

Step 1 of 3

Place spinach in a large bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 30 seconds or until wilted. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze any excess liquid from spinach, then roughly chop. Place in a bowl. Add pesto and stir to combine.

Step 2 of 3

Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper. Cut 1 pastry sheet in half. Place 1 salmon fillet on one half. Spread with a little cream cheese, then spoon over one-sixth of the spinach mixture. Top with remaining pastry half. Crimp edges to seal. Using the image as a guide, create decorative scales by scoring the top with a 3cm cookie cutter. Place on 1 prepared baking tray. Repeat with remaining pastry sheets, salmon, cream cheese and spinach mixture to make 6 parcels. Brush with egg and season with freshly cracked black pepper.

Step 3 of 3

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until salmon is just cooked through and pastry is golden-brown. Serve sprinkled with dill.
