Flora and spinach gratin

If you make the white sauce for the gratin a little looser, it will be easier to pour over the ingredients. This butter-sauteed spinach recipe is easy to make, so you can use any leftover sauteed spinach as a side dish for other dishes

How to make it
1

Boil the spinach in salted water for about 3 minutes, then drain in a colander. Once cooled, squeeze out the water and cut off the roots. Cut into bite-sized pieces about 2-3cm long

2

Use three pieces of flounder that have been filleted into five pieces. Remove the skin and internal organs, then sprinkle salt and white pepper on both sides

3

Make butter-sautéed spinach. Heat a frying pan with unsalted butter and add the spinach from step (1). Add salt and a little water and stir-fry until well combined

4

Place the butter-sautéed spinach in a gratin dish lightly coated with unsalted butter. Use about 30g per serving

5

Prepare the shrimp and pound them with a knife to make a paste

6

Place three equal portions of the shrimp paste (5) on the flounder, and fold the flounder so that it encases the shrimp paste

7

Heat a frying pan with olive oil and lightly dust with flour. Place [6] seam-side down and fry. Turn over halfway through cooking to ensure the entire surface is browned. Wipe off any excess oil with kitchen paper

8

Add white wine and vermouth to a frying pan, and once the flounder is cooked through, remove from the heat and place the flounder on top of the spinach (4)

9

Add the bechamel sauce to the frying pan (8) and heat to make the white sauce

10

Pour the white sauce (9) over the flounder, then top with the tomato sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and torn pieces of unsalted butter, then bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 6 minutes

11

Once it's browned to the right degree, it's ready. Remove from the oven and garnish with Italian parsley and lemon juice
