SMOKED SALMON TOASTS
100 gr crème fraîche
½ tsp horseradish
1 small pinch of sea salt
1 small pinch of freshly ground black pepper
1 squeeze of lemon juice
1 loaf ciabatta
Extra virgin olive oil
200 g smoked salmon
½ punnet cress
Juiced lemon
Add ½ a teaspoon of creamed horseradish to the crème fraîche. Sprinkle in a small pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice then mix well. Taste to check it’s hot enough. Cut a loaf of ciabatta into 1cm thick slices, toast or griddle them then drizzle over a little extra virgin olive oil. Add a dollop of horseradish crème fraîche to each toast. Top with waves of smoked salmon and snip over ½ a punnet of cress. Finish with a tiny drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a little squeeze of lemon juice. Delicious!
Delicious salmon toasts are the perfect addition to the dinner table this time of the year. Actually, they are so good, that I could serve them for dinner parties in December, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and I still wouldn’t get tired of them before we entered 2022!
