Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Finely chop the shallot and sauté until soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add finely chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook until all moisture has evaporated and the mixture is dry, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside to cool.
Flake the cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces and make sure to remove any bones. Chop the hard-boiled eggs and combine them with the mushrooms, cooked rice, and finely chopped dill in a large mixing bowl. Mix gently to combine.
Roll out the puff pastry into a large rectangle on a floured surface. Spoon the salmon mixture lengthwise down the center, leaving about 5 cm (2 inches) of space on each side.
Carefully fold the pastry over the filling, sealing the edges by pinching them together. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for extra security and decoration.
Transfer the coulibiac to the prepared baking sheet. Beat the raw egg in a small bowl and brush it evenly over the pastry to give it a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and flaky. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, prepare the sour cream dill sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon juice, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in freshly chopped dill.
Serve slices of the coulibiac with a generous dollop of the sour cream dill sauce on the side and enjoy!
