I saw this starter recipe on This Morning which I am going to make
Easy smoked salmon mousse with avocado and dill
Serves: 6-8 persons
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: none
Can be made the day before
Ingredients
1 x 250g any smoked salmon off cuts are perfect
4 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
2-3 tbsp Brandy
pepper
200g cream cheese
dash milk
250g - 300g long sliced smoked salmon
2 large avocado
4 tbsp chopped fresh dill
1 tbsp olive oil
salt
pepper
juice 1 large lemon
Method
- Place the 250g salmon, parsley, Brandy and pepper into a food processor
- Blitz until fairly smooth, then scrape the sides of the bowl down well
- Add the cream cheese and milk and blitz again
- Taste and adjust if needed, you probably will need no salt. I use small bowls and line each one with cling film.
- Using the long slices of smoked salmon, cut to fit into the clingfilm lined bowls
- You can use one large bowl in you prefer, and cut wedges
- Spoon the mousse into whichever serving bowl you are using and pack down nice and tightly
- Cover the base with salmon and cover with the film
- Chill well probably best overnight
- When ready to serve, turn the bowls out or cut wedges
- Chop the avocado into small cubes, add the dill, oil and salt and pepper. When ready to serve add the lemon juice.
