As promised here’s my spinach and salmon cups that I made for an evening gathering with friends. I used wonton wrappers, which cut the time for preparing, as I usually make these with handmade crust.
Ingredients
280g frozen spinach, chopped and thawed
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
2 roasted garlic cloves (finely chopped)
1 tsp. onion powder
150g crumbled feta cheese (Greek)
1 large pinch fresh ground black pepper
quality black truffle oil for drizzling
fresh grated Parmesan cheese for garnishing
Prep: 6 min. or less.
Tips: Make sure to remove excess from frozen spinach by squeezing/pressing spinach to remove moisture before proceeding to step 1.
Yield & Time: Serves 4 to 6 persons, Makes 18-24 +/- cups depending on the amount in each cup, and muffin pan size. Bake: 190C/Gas 5/375F Bake 8 to 12 minutes.
Method:
Spinach Mixture:
-
Spray muffin pan with cooking oil/olive oil. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl add spinach, onion powder, garlic, black pepper, and olive oil together, stir with a spoon combining ingredients.
- Add in feta cheese, carefully press cheese as you blend it with spinach mixture using a fork. Do not over blend. The mixture should still be slightly chunky.
- Set bowl aside.
Wonton Cups:
-
Set aside a small dipping bowl with water.
-
Take one wonton wrapper at a time, and dip fingertips in the bowl of water and dot the wonton wrapper once or twice on corners to make them more pliable.
-
Place the wonton wrapper in a muffin slot (centre), gently pressing in the pan.
-
With a large spoon or scooper, fill the centre of the wonton wrapper with one scoop of spinach mixture in the muffin pan. Now you have made your first wonton cup.
-
Repeat steps 2, and 3, and 4 for each wonton cup.
-
Bake approximately 8-12 min. or until wonton wrappers are golden brown and centre of each cup is hot.
-
Drizzle black truffle oil on top of each spinach cup, then add a few sprinkles of Parmesan cheese on each one. Let stand for 2 min.
-
Remove spinach cups from muffin pan. Serve hot.

What do you think of these?
For my smoked salmon cups, I basically used the same principle, but for garnishing, I added parsley and paprika. Fortunately, we have a smoker so we just smoked the salmon ourselves with a homemade dry rub, but you can use any smoked salmon fillet that you prefer. View recipe here.
oh my! so easy and I love spinach! it's so delicious!

Thank you! 🙂
<3 Liebe Rena, Danke. 🙂 Ich liebe Spinat auch, und das ist einfach zu machen. Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Mittwoch.
Alles liebe von Madison xoxo 🙂
Thanks Elsie. x
Thanks Mira! There are gluten-free versions, make it with a gluten-free flour (rice, or quinoa), but I would use a gluten-free puff pastry if you don't find GF wonton wrappers. Diese Version ist schmeckt gut mit Blätterteig, aber schwerer. Aber, die Wonton sind in der Regel dünner. <3 Wünsch dir einen guten Mittwoch! xx / M
Thanks Marj. I love salmon as well. Spinach and feta, with truffle oil just sets it right well, lol. Enjoy the rest of your week. <3
