Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams smoked trout fillets
- 100 grams cream cheese
- 50 grams Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt (optional)
Instructions
Remove the skin from the smoked trout fillets and check for any remaining bones. Break the fillets into smaller chunks.
In a food processor, combine the smoked trout pieces, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, fresh dill, lemon juice, lemon zest, and capers.
Pulse the mixture until smooth but still slightly textured, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
Taste the mixture and season with black pepper. Add salt if needed, keeping in mind that smoked trout and capers are already salty.
Transfer the pâté to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprig of dill or additional lemon zest, if desired.
Serve immediately with crackers, bread, or vegetable sticks. Alternatively, refrigerate for up to 2 days and bring to room temperature before serving.
