SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

For Salmon

For Creme Fraiche Sauce

For Lasagna

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. 2
    Pour wine into a wide shallow sauce pan, add lemon 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.
  3. 3
    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.
  4. 4
    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.
  5. 5
    Flake salmon into generous bite size pieces with a fork or fingers. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  6. 6
    Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions.
  7. 7
    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.
  8. 8
    Bake about 30 minutes, until hot and bubbly, and cheese is melted.
  9. 9
    Allow lasagna to cool slightly and set up before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

The flavours in this recipe are absolutely wonderful. I thought that the salmon might be too "wine-y", but it is great. I thought that the dish would be too dry because there isn't much sauce, but it's just right! I forgot to add the rest of the dill to the sauce, but it was still delicious. Normally with contests, I take a point off for missing something, but it was obvious that the garlic goes in when poaching the salmon and it's too good to take a point off! I needed to use a little bit of cheddar because I was short on mozzarella. Try this! Everybody at work wanted to, but I wouldn't share! LOL! It's really terrific. Best of luck in RSC #14 - it is truly amazing.

    Very nice lasagna recipe and an imaginative use of the contest ingredients. I didn't much care for the salmon in the finished lasagna and would have preferred a 'meatier', less intensely flavoured fish, but do realize the confines of the 5 ingredients in the contest entry. I very much look forward to trying this with some monkfish, or even shrimp. Good luck, chef.
