Instructions
Spinach base
Squeeze the thawed spinach well with your hands to drain the liquid.
Put spinach, egg yolk, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix together.
Put the egg whites in another bowl and whisk until stiff.
Fold a couple of tablespoons of the fluffy egg whites into the spinach mixture.
Then add the rest of the egg whites.
Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet and spread the spinach mixture on top.
Place the tray in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) (fan).
Let the spinach base bake for about fifteen minutes. It should look slightly golden.
Take the finished spinach base out of the oven.
Place a piece of parchment paper on the kitchen counter and turn the spinach base out onto it.
Let the spinach base cool a bit and then remove the top piece of parchment paper from the base.
Put the cream cheese in a bowl and mix it with the lemon.
Season with salt and pepper.
Spread it on the cooled spinach base. One end (on the short side) should be left free of filling for about 5 centimeters.
Place slices of salmon on top, covering the cream cheese.
Now roll the roulade from the short side. Start from the side where the filling goes all the way to the edge and roll towards the side with the 5 centimeters "free" edge.
Finally, wrap the salmon roulade tightly in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. It should stay there for at least an hour to set. Therefore, it can easily be made the day before.
Season the crème fraîche with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and dill and serve the dressing in a bowl.
Unwrap the salmon roulade from the plastic wrap and place it on a cutting board.
Cut the roulade into slices of appropriate size. A couple of centimeters thick is fine. Rinse the knife under the tap each time you cut a slice so the slices look nice.
Arrange the slices neatly on a cutting board next to the bowl of dressing.
