- 100 grams Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 1 whole Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Separate the Belgian endive leaves carefully and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel and set aside.
Chop the smoked salmon into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, mix the cream cheese, sour cream, and the juice of half a lemon until smooth and well combined.
Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the cream cheese mixture. Stir well.
Add the chopped smoked salmon to the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold until evenly distributed.
Season the filling with salt and black pepper to taste, and mix gently.
Use a small spoon to dollop the smoked salmon mixture into each endive leaf, making sure not to overfill.
Garnish with small capers on top of the filling, and optionally, a tiny piece of fresh dill or a thin lemon zest twist for decoration.
Arrange the stuffed endive leaves on a serving platter and serve immediately. Enjoy!
