Salmon And Spinach Tarts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 tbsp butter
    2 tbsp flour
    1/2 cup fish stock
    1/2 cup milk
    1 tbsp lemon juice
    1 None small onion, peeled and finely chopped
    10.5 oz baby spinach
    1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
    10.5 oz puff pastry
    8.75 oz salmon fillet, cubed
    1 None egg, beaten
    4 None fresh dill sprigs, to garnish
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F. Melt 1 tbsp butter in a pan, add flour and cook for 1 min then gradually whisk in stock and milk and simmer for 2-3 mins, stirring, until thickened. Add lemon juice and season. Cover and set aside.
    For spinach, heat remaining butter in a separate pan and sweat onion until soft. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Add nutmeg, season and set aside.
    Thinly roll out 1/2 the pastry, cut out 4 - 5 1/2 inch circles then use to line 4 - 5 inch tart pans. Distribute spinach, salmon and sauce between tarts. Brush edges with egg. Cut out 4 - 5 inch pastry circles then place over filling and seal edges. Cut a cross in the center of each tart lid and fold back corners to reveal filling. Brush with egg and bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown and filling has set. Serve garnished with fresh dill sprigs.
