Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams smoked salmon
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium cucumber
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cream cheese, finely chopped dill, and chives until well combined.
Add the lemon juice, rinsed capers, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
Trim the ends off the cucumber, then slice it lengthwise into thin, ribbon-like strips using a mandoline or a vegetable peeler.
Lay a piece of plastic wrap on a flat surface, and place the smoked salmon slices on it, slightly overlapping to form a rectangle.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface of the salmon.
Place a couple of cucumber ribbons across one end of the salmon base.
Gently start rolling the salmon over the cucumber ribbons, using the plastic wrap to help keep it tight, until you form a log.
Wrap the salmon roll tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow it to set.
Remove the roll from the refrigerator, unwrap it, and slice into 1-inch thick slices.
Serve immediately as a light appetizer or refrigerate until ready to serve.
