Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Slice the gravad salmon into thin strips and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Chop the fresh dill finely and stir it into the egg mixture.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the egg mixture, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated.
Heat the olive oil and butter in an oven-safe, non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pour the pasta and egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it out to form an even layer.
Cook on the stovetop for 5-7 minutes, until the edges begin to set but the center is still slightly runny.
Gently press the salmon strips, capers, and lemon zest into the top of the frittata.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden on top.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing into wedges.
Garnish with additional dill if desired, then serve warm or at room temperature.
