Pour hot water over the spinach to cover it and let it sit in the water for about a minute.
Squeeze the spinach well and put it in the electric chopper. Add three egg yolks, 30 ml of sunflower oil, and 50 ml of milk.
Pulse the chopper a few times to combine everything, then add a teaspoon of salt and pulse again until the mixture is smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and whisk in 60g of flour.
Stir briskly until there are no lumps and the batter is completely smooth and velvety.
Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they form stiff, glossy peaks.
Incorporate the beaten egg whites into the spinach mixture with a light folding motion.
Prepar an oven tray lined with baking paper. Carefully pour the spinach mixture in and spread it out, making sure it reaches all the edges.
Place the tray in the preheated oven at 170°C Fan (338 F) for fifteen minutes, or until the spinach mixture is just set and lightly golden.
Let the spinach mixture cool for 10-15 minutes, or until it's cool enough to handle. Flip the baked spinach sheet onto a new piece of baking paper, ensuring the top side will be the outside of the roulade.
Spread the cream cheese over the spinach sheet. Add a layer of delicious smoked salmon. Sprinkle a pinch of freshly ground black pepper over the salmon layer.
Lift the edge of the baking paper and use it to guide the spinach sheet as you roll it tightly around the filling.
Wrap it securely in the baking paper and place it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to allow it to firm up.
Cut the roulade into even slices, about 1-1.5 cm thick.
