3. Make the Spinach and Corn Mashed Potatoes:

   • Boil the potato until tender, along with the spinach and corn. Drain them well.

   • In a small saucepan, heat the milk. Add half of the seasoning mixture (you can also add a bit of salt and MSG if you’re not avoiding it) and stir well.
   • Combine the milk mixture with the mashed potatoes, stirring until well mixed and thickened. Set aside.

4. Bake the Salmon:

   • Rub the salmon with the remaining seasoning mixture and a little olive oil.
   • Wrap the seasoned salmon in aluminum foil.
   • Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (approximately 390°F) for about 30 minutes.
