1 cup long grain rice
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 lb puff pastry sheet

Cook the rice in salted water until tender, about 18 minutes, then drain it well.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then cook the mushrooms and green onions for 8 minutes.
Stir the rice, mushroom mixture, lemon juice, two beaten eggs, salt, and pepper together.
Heat the oven to 400 F, roll out the pastry, and place the salmon and rice mixture in the center.
Fold and seal the pastry around the filling, brush it with the remaining beaten egg, and place it on a baking sheet.
Bake for 35 minutes and rest for 10 minutes, until the pastry is golden and the salmon reaches 145 F.
