Salmon with Creamed Spinach

My latest project with this blog is to make my family do all the work for me.

First up---my brother in law, Bob. He really likes cooking.



Today is his 27th birthday, and so I'd like to share a favourite recipe from the Amorgowich house.
(Bob doesn't measure things so all times and measurements are approximate)

Salmon with Creamed Spinach

Preheat oven to 350˚
Rub cookie sheet with thin layer of olive oil.
Mix together equal parts panko and FRESH parm (about ¾ cup each) in melted butter (good tbsp).
Cut salmon into single serving sizes and season with salt and pepper. Top each with panko mixture and bake for ONLY 12 – 15 minutes and let rest.
Meanwhile, make basmati rice (not white rice, never white rice).
Wash a bag of spinach. Put wet spinach in pot at medium heat until slightly wilted ~3 minutes. Squeeze most of moisture out of spinach and return to pot. Add ½ cup of cream and ½ teaspoon of nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper (of course). Reheat on medium low for 5 – 10 minutes, adding more cream if required.

To serve, start with a base of rice, top with creamed spinach (don’t forget some of that green cream) and then with serving of salmon.

Thanks Bob for sharing this great recipe!
