Microwave Salmon Roulade Recipe

I feel as though I’m a bit of a microwave evangelist. I actually haven’t used a saucepan in 30 years.

Servings: 2
Prep time: 15 minutes
Total time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 bunch fresh spinach leaves
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
pinch of ground nutmeg
pinch of black pepper
3 eggs, yolks and whites separated
1/2 cup crème fraîche
2 tablespoons freshly chopped dill
1/2 cup chopped smoked salmon

Directions

1. Cook the spinach in the microwave for two minutes. Roughly chop the cooked spinach and add the butter and nutmeg.

2. Whisk the egg whites until stiff (the mix should stay in the bowl when turned upside down.) Mix the egg whites with the spinach and transfer into a microwave-safe baking tray lined with baking paper. Cook for 2 and a half minutes in the microwave.

3. Combine the crème fraîche, salmon, and dill. Spread the cooked spinach mix onto a flat surface covered in baking paper. Spoon the salmon mix onto the spinach layer and spread evenly. Use the edge of the baking paper to roll the spinach layer over onto itself, creating a roll (the traditional roulade shape).

4. Allow to cool, then chill for half an hour in the fridge. Slice the roll and serve.
