Fresh Salmon, Dill & Horseradish Tians
Serves 6.
These can be made a day ahead in presentation rings or ramekins lined with cling film, ready to be turned out on the day. The salmon mixture has no gelatine so is soft, but keeps its shape.
Ingredients
- 350g (12oz) fresh salmon fillet, skinned
- 6 tablespoons low calorie mayonnaise
- 6 tablespoons full fat creme fraiche
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill
- juice of half a lemon
- 1 teaspoon creamed horseradish
- salt and pepper
For decorating
- 6 slices smoked salmon
- a few salad leaves
- 6 lemon wedges
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 160ºC/325ºF/Gas 3. You will need 6 Deep Presentation Rings arranged on a flat baking sheet or tray.
- Season the salmon fillet and wrap in one layer of buttered foil. Slide onto a baking sheet and bake in the pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes until just opaque and cooked. Allow to cool.
- Flake the cooled salmon, removing any bones. Mix the salmon and any juices with the mayonnaise and creme fraiche in a bowl and season with dill, lemon, horseradish, salt and pepper.
- Divide evenly between the rings and, using the back of a teaspoon, push the mixture down and level the tops. Transfer to the fridge. Leave for at least 4 hours to firm.
- Slip a palate knife under the ring and lift each onto a few dressed salad leaves. Remove the ring and arrange one generous curl of smoked salmon on the top of each tian, decorate with a sprig of fresh dill and serve with a wedge of lemon and brown bread and butter.
Tips: Not suitable for freezing. Can be made the day before serving and kept in the fridge.
