- 120 grams Smoked salmon
- 0.25 whole Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 2 sprigs Fresh dill
- 0.5 whole Lemon
- 1 pinch Salt

Instructions
Begin by slicing each bagel in half horizontally to create two equal sides.
Toast the bagel halves in a toaster or an oven until they are golden and crisp, taking care not to burn them.
While the bagels are toasting, thinly slice the red onion and set aside.
Once toasted, spread approximately 50 grams of cream cheese on each bagel half, ensuring an even layer across the surface.
Layer about 60 grams of smoked salmon over the cream cheese on each bagel half.
Distribute the sliced red onion evenly over the smoked salmon layers.
Sprinkle a tablespoon of capers on each bagel half, allowing the briny flavor to complement the rich salmon and creamy cheese.
Tear the fresh dill sprigs into smaller pieces and sprinkle them over each bagel half for added freshness and aroma.
Squeeze a bit of lemon juice over the topping on each bagel half to add a bright citrusy note.
Finally, season each bagel half with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delectable bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese.
