Smoked Salmon Pinwheels

May 26, 2011


Willow got this recipe from a 1970’s cookbook: It’s an oldie but a goodie. Sure to be a crowd pleaser whenever you’ve got guests – or if you need to host an impromptu surprise anniversary party!

375g cream cheese, softened

1 packet lavosh bread

500g smoked salmon, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons diced gherkin

1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

Black pepper and sea salt

Mix together cream cheese, lemon, dill, salt and pepper. Spread this mixture thinly on lavosh bread and then top with smoked salmon and gherkin. Roll tightly and wrap in cling film – they should look like very thick cigars. Refrigerate for at least one hour. Just before serving,  cut into 1 inch pieces with a sharp knife and arrange on a plate. Garnish with dill and serve.
