- 18 baby spinach leaves
- 12oz/350g roast smoked salmon

- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
- Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4
- Cut the sheets into rectangular strips about 4 inches wide and stack them in a pile. Work quickly so they don't dry out.

- Season with salt and pepper, and fold one corner up over it.
