This dish is perfect for warm summer days when you dont feel like cooking.

Rinse the salmon fillets and thoroughly dry them with paper towels. Remove any small bones with tweezers. Cut the fillets into 4 approximately equal pieces. Season the pieces with pepper and salt.
Place a pot with about 2 liters of water on the stove. While waiting for the water to boil, clean and rinse the spinach. Add the rinsed spinach to the boiling water and cook just until the leaves soften. Then drain the spinach and let it cool.
Once cooled, squeeze the spinach well with your hands and chop it finely. Peel the garlic and chop it very finely. In a bowl, mix the yogurt, lemon juice, and sour cream. Season to taste with pepper and salt, and continue mixing until the salt is completely dissolved. Finally, mix in the chopped spinach and garlic.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Pour oil into the heated pan, wait for it to heat up, then place the salmon pieces in the pan. First, cook them for 2 to 3 minutes without moving or flipping on the side where the skin was. Then carefully flip the pieces and cook on the other side (for about 3 to 4 minutes). If you have thicker pieces, briefly cook them on the sides as well.
Serve the cooked salmon pieces on plates, pour the prepared sauce over them, and serve. As a side dish, you can offer boiled potatoes.
