Ingredients

1kg floury potatoes, cut into 3mm slices
1 tbsp olive oil
1 large red onion, sliced
1 tbsp plain flour
A few handfuls of baby spinach
Butter, for greasing
3 salmon fillets, sliced
200ml double cream
50g grated Gruyère

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, then simmer the potatoes for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and gently fry the red onion for 5 minutes, then stir in the flour and season well.
Wilt the spinach in a pan over a medium heat, then squeeze out the excess liquid. Butter a 1.2-litre ovenproof dish and layer up the potatoes and onion with the salmon and the spinach, ending with a layer of potato.
Pour the cream over the top. Sprinkle with the Gruyère and bake for 20-30 minutes, until golden and bubbling.
