Ingredients

300g baby spinach
3 fresh lasagne sheets
400g fresh parsley sauce or fresh white sauce
170g poached salmon fillets, skinned and boned, broken into chunks
150g raw, peeled king prawns
25g Parmesan, grated
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Place the spinach in a large colander, pour over a kettle of boiling water, then refresh under cold running water. Squeeze very well to remove all the excess water, then season well.
Blanch the lasagne sheets in a pan of boiling salted water for 2 minutes, drain and set aside.
Pour a third of the parsley sauce into a small (25cm x 15cm) buttered gratin dish and spread into an even layer. Top with half the spinach, half the salmon and half the prawns, then cover with a lasagne sheet. Pour half the remaining sauce over, then repeat with the rest of the spinach, salmon and prawns. Top with another lasagne sheet, pour the rest of the sauce over, scatter with the Parmesan and nutmeg and season.
Place the lasagne on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbling-hot and cooked through. Serve with garlic bread or a green salad.
