Spectacular Salmon with Greek Yoghurt and Spinach

Sorry I haven´t posted lately. I have been quite busy with university and I have been coming home to study late every night. This has understandably reduced my culinary experimenting quite a bit, but here it is, a new post!
It´s is a super easy dinner that will practically make itself. Just pop it in the oven and go back to your studying or other things ;)

Ingredients:
  • 1 salmon fillet
  • 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt
  • 2 teaspoons French mustard (I used the wholegrain kind)
  • 2 medium-sized potatoes
  • leaf spinach
Directions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 180 C.
  2. Mix the mustard and the greek yoghurt together.
  3. Slice the salmon fillet horizontally to make a pocket and put in the yoghurt-mustard mix.
  4. Wash your potatoes, and peel them if you like. Cut them into thin slices.
  5. In an ovenproof dish, add some olive oil and lay down the potatoes slices so that the salmon can lie on top of it. Season with salt, pepper and any kind of dried herbs (I used rosemary and basil)
  6. Add the salmon on top and put it in the oven. It should cook for about 20-30 minutes.
  7. The last 10 minutes your salmon in the oven, thoroughly rinse the leaf spinach and dry well.
  8. Heat a  good knob of butter in a frying pan and add the spinach. It won´t take long until it´s ready (maybe 5 minutes), season, and if you have some, add lemon or lime juice.


Bon Appétit!
