Smoked Salmon & Dill Dutch Baby - Excellent dish . Just be VERY CAREFUL WITH THE HANDLE OF THE FRYING PAN which has to be preheated in the oven. The handle gets dangerously hot !! I mix the base early in the day and also make the red onion apple cider vinegar dressing then too. Then you only need to heat the frying pan in the oven and add the base mixture and bake for about 20 minutes. Next, after you CAREFULLY ! remove the base in the pan from the oven you only need to add the toppings ! Really nice and quite easy! I immediately move the pie to a flan plate as it’s safer to handle !
