Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large carrots
- 2 bagels
- 200 g cream cheese
- 2 tbsp capers
- 1 red onion
- 10 g fresh dill
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp liquid smoke
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the carrots into long, thin strips using a vegetable peeler.
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, liquid smoke, maple syrup, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Submerge the carrot strips in the marinade, ensuring they're well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Place the marinated carrot strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until slightly caramelized and tender.
While the carrots are baking, slice the red onion thinly and chop the fresh dill.
Once the carrots are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Toast the bagels to your liking.
Spread a generous layer of cream cheese on each bagel half.
Top the cream cheese with the marinated carrot 'salmon', followed by sliced red onions, capers, and a sprinkling of fresh dill.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegetarian Smoked Salmon Bagel!
