Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Peel and grate the potatoes. Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the grated potatoes, season with a pinch of salt, and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened. Set aside.
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic (minced) and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet with the garlic. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream cheese and heavy cream until smooth. Set aside.
Lightly grease a baking dish with the remaining olive oil. Spread half of the softened potato mixture evenly across the bottom of the dish.
Cut the salmon fillets into bite-sized pieces and spread them evenly over the potato layer in the baking dish.
Pour the creamy spinach mixture over the salmon layer, spreading it out evenly.
Top with the remaining half of the potato mixture, pressing gently to form a cohesive layer.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top potato layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy, and the salmon is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the bake rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, garnished with extra Parmesan or fresh herbs if desired.
