This recipe is from MC Linda on www.wunderkessel.de, translated by me.  We made this tonight minus the leek (which I managed not to notice, I thought it was talking about salmon as I read it quickly (leek = lauch , salmon = lachs), and with peas in place as spinach as it's all I had to hand.  From the comments, others have used broccoli, so I suspect any green vegetable would work.  Apparently, even those who don't like spinach like it in this recipe.  I do like it, but didn't have any to hand.  I had salmon I'd steamed for another meal, so I put that in, and baked for 20 minutes instead.  This was a big hit with all of my family, and (in its original format) with the wunderkessel forum members.
As my picture shows, I've suddenly become younger :-)  DD was of the opinion that her picture should be here, not mine!

It sounds great, thanks

LOL - I don't know how many times when interpreting quickly I make very similar errors.  Especially from Spanish, which I really don't speak at all. 

In Italian, when you cut the leeks into rounds - rotelle - the translator tells you to make wheelchairs !!(sedia a rotelle).
