Dill-Licious Salmon And Spinach Lasagna: - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    For Salmon
    1 lb fresh salmon fillet
    1 1/2 cups white wine
    4 tablespoons fresh dill
    1 lemon, sliced
    2 garlic cloves, slightly crushed
    For Creme Fraiche Sauce
    1 cup creme fraiche
    3 -4 green onions, sliced thin
    4 ounces pimientos, drained and roughly chopped
    1/8 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
    For Lasagna
    6 ounces washed Baby Spinach
    16 ounces lasagna noodles
    1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
    Pour wine into a wide shallow sauce pan, add lemon, garlic and about half of the dill (whole stems will work best), and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a low simmer, add salmon, and poach until cooked through, turn once if liquid does not cover fish.
    Set salmon aside, and allow to cool. Remove dill sprigs, lemon slices, and garlic, increase heat to high, and reduce poaching liquid to 1/2 cup.
    Thin creme fraiche with reduced cooking liquid to a drizzle-able sauce consistency. Stir in green onions, pimientos, nutmeg, and the other half of the dill minced fine, and salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to use.
    Flake salmon into generous bite size pieces with a fork or fingers. Refrigerate until ready to use.
    Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions.
    Lightly oil the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Layer 1/3 each of pasta, spinach leaves, salmon, sauce, and cheeses. Finish with cheeses on top.
    Bake about 30 minutes, until hot and bubbly, and cheese is melted.
    Allow lasagna to cool slightly and set up before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
