Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large English cucumber
- 100 grams Dairy-free cream cheese
- 100 grams Smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Wash the cucumber thoroughly and pat dry with a paper towel.
Using a mandoline or a vegetable peeler, slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin, even strips. You should aim for strips that are about 2 mm thick. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the dairy-free cream cheese, finely chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Lay a cucumber strip flat on a clean cutting board.
Spread a thin layer of the seasoned dairy-free cream cheese along the entire length of the cucumber strip.
Place a small piece of smoked salmon on one end of the cucumber strip.
Roll the cucumber strip tightly starting from the end with the smoked salmon, to form a neat roll.
Secure the roll with a toothpick if necessary, and place it on a serving plate.
Repeat with the remaining cucumber strips and filling.
Garnish the plate with extra fresh dill sprigs if desired. Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer.
