Ingredients
  

  • 200g smoked salmon slices
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese (full-fat, softened)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1 small cucumber (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tsp capers
  • Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Equipment

  • 1 Sharp Knife
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Serving platter
  • 1 Small whisk or spoon

Method
 

  1. Make the Salmon: Place the smoked salmon slices flat on a serving platter to form the bed of your serving dish.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, lemon juice, olive oil and dill. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Arrange the Vegetables: Layer the cucumber pieces neatly around and on top of the salmon to provide a contrast of crunch and cool.
  4. Add Flavour Toppings: Drizzle evenly with capers and freshly ground pepper for a zesty, briney kick.
  5. Final Touch & Rest: Drizzle with cream cheese and sprinkle with more dill (if using). Rest for 5 minutes, to get more flavour!

Notes

  • Don't skimp on mediocre smoked salmon - go for the good stuff!
  • Add in some slices of avocado for more healthy fats.
  • Let the salmon chill before serving for the best flavour.
  • Serve garnished with some fresh herbs such as chives or parsley.
  • Serve with keto bread or on crackers and it makes a meal.
