salmon potato fry with herbs & spinach

Updated on Apr 29, 2013

My favorite to use left over salmon and those lovely small packages of smoked salmon trimmings that are such a good buy (check for them in the refrigerated meat/fish section.) If I don't have left over salmon, I sometimes will use canned salmon along with the smoked bits. One 6 oz. can will do it. My family likes this and it's a simple, pretty healthy one dish meal. From the cookbook "Plenty" by Diana Henry.

How To Make salmon potato fry with herbs & spinach

  • Step 1
    Heat butter and oil in large frying pan and add the onions and potatoes. Fry over medium heat until they are golden and the potatoes have browned in places.
  • Step 2
    Flake the cooked salmon, discarding skin and any bones. Stir in along with smoked salmon, spinach, and peas, if using. Stir gently allowing the pinch to wilt.
  • Step 3
    Season to taste with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and your chosen herb.
  • Step 4
    TIP: frozen potato chunks (hash-browns) can be bought, as well as washed & trimmed "baby spinach" to make prep easier.
