Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Irish soda bread
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 200 grams Smoked salmon
- 120 grams Crème fraîche
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the Irish soda bread into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick. Aim for 16 slices.
Brush both sides of each soda bread slice with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake the soda bread slices in the preheated oven for 5 minutes or until they are lightly toasted and crisp. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
While the bread is cooling, prepare the toppings. Slice the smoked salmon into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the crème fraîche with the lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Once the crostini have cooled, spread a small dollop of the seasoned crème fraîche on each toasted slice.
Top each crostini with a piece of smoked salmon.
Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill and a few capers.
Arrange the crostini on a serving platter and enjoy immediately.
