Equipment

  • Air-fryer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Sharp Knife
  • Spoon for stuffing
  • Baking Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 salmon fillets 170 grams each (with skin on)
  • 113 grams cream cheese
  • 30 grams fresh spinach
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • Dried or fresh dill to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, spinach, garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper.
  • Lay out the salmon fillets on a flat surface with the skin side down.
  • Divide the cream cheese filling evenly between the two fillets, spreading it on one side of each fillet.
  • Roll the salmon fillets up, starting at the thinner end and rolling towards the thicker end.
  • If desired, place the rolled fillets in a baking dish to help hold their shape while air frying.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F.
  • Place the stuffed salmon fillets in the air fryer basket, giving them enough space to cook evenly.
  • Air fry for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking time with tongs or a spatula.
  • Once cooked, remove from air fryer and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • If you prefer skinless salmon, feel free to use skinless fillets, just adjust the cooking time slightly to avoid drying out the fish.
  • For a crispy top, sprinkle some breadcrumbs on top of the stuffed salmon before air frying!
