Hello everyone
I thought I'd share the yummiest recipe for salmon lasagne. I came across it on a Scandinavian blog I follow, and it's so awesome that it needs to be shared with all Aussies!
Fish-base
500 g salmon fillets
Bake the salmon fillets with some salt and pepper on 200 degrees C for around 15 minutes. Continue with the other steps while the salmon is in the oven.
Spinach-layer:
500 g frozen spinach
3 tablespoons butter
1 finely chopped red onion
2 stems of chopped spring onion
A pinch of salt
Mix ingredients in a pot and let simmer for a few minutes
Lasagna-plates
I used the recipe from my lasagne-post:aussie-lowcarb-living.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/lasagne.html
Bechamel-sauce
2 heaped tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
500 ml full cream milk
120 g shredded cheese
2 gloves of garlic
Salt and pepper
Melt the butter in a pot, stir in flour and add the milk little by little. When thickened, add the garlic and the cheese.
Now is the time to admit I did something very very naughty: I used white flour....(the shock! The horror!) But I reckoned it was a very small amount, and when I calculated the nutritional values (see below) it wasn't too bad. However, I'd be happy to receive some tips on what can be used in stead to get that silky, bechamel-feeling.
Combining the layers:
Mash the baked salmon with a fork. Place about half of the salmon in a buttered oven-safe dish.
Place a layer of the spinach-sauce on top of the fish.
On top of that, spread about half of the lasagne-plates.
Cover with a layer of the bechamel-sauce.
Add another layer: Salmon, then spinach, then bechamel sauce and lasagne-plates.
Cover with more shredded cheese (I ended up using 90 grams). Put it into the oven and bake on 200 degrees C for around 15 minutes. Let the lasagne rest for 5 minutes before you enjoy this little piece of heaven.
Despite the naughtiness involving white flour, the nutritional values ended up not being at all too bad:
Per portion (based on a total of 6 portions per lasagne)
