1 BAG OF SPINACH 

 

750 ML WHITE SAUCE 

 

375G PUFF PASTRY

 

1 BEATEN EGG

 

 

Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured board big enough to wrap your salmon in and have enough to be able seal up the edges

tightly.

 

Place the salmon on top of the pastry...

 

Make the white sauce and season it with salt and fresh black pepper also,you can add a half teaspoon of ground bayleaf to the sauce to give it a nice flavour. Spread the sauce evenly over the salmon.

 

Sweat the spinach, and drain very well. Then place this on top of the sauce.

 

Fold the pastry over to make a parcel and seal the edges together tightly.

 

Place this on a baking tray and brush the top of the pastry with beaten egg...

This should serve 4-6 people.
