Method

Preparation

For the Filo

  • Heat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a large flat baking tray
  • Wilt the spinach in the microwave for 1 minute. Squeeze out the water and fnely chop. After cooling, mix with the light cream cheese, the lemon rind and 1 tbs juice, and a good grind of black pepper
  • Place a single sheet of filo onto a clean work surface and brush the edges lightly with extra virgin olive oil. Lay a second sheet over the top and again brush the edges with the oil. Then place a salmon fillet at one end and top with a quarter of the spinach cheese mixture. Wrap up the filo parcel to encase the salmon. Place onto the prepared baking tray and repeat with remaining filo, salmon and spinach mixture to make three more parcels.
  • Brush the top of each filo parcel with oil and sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden.
  • While the salmon is cooking, steam or microwave the broccoli for 2 minutes. Drain and plunge into a bowl of icy cold water to stop the cooking process and ensure it holds its bright green colour and slightly crunchy texture. Drain well on paper towel. Place onto a bowl. Add lettuce, cucumber and pepitas.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients together. Serve the salmon with salad and dressing .
