Asparagus Smoked Salmon Rolls with Horseradish Cream
Seafood and spears – what a great combination and these little rolls are bursting with flavour and goodness too!
Ingredients
- 10 asparagus spears, woody ends removed
- 4 slices smoked salmon
- Lemon juice, sprigs of dill and salmon roe, to serve
Horseradish Cream:
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons horseradish cream
- 2 teaspoons chopped dill
- Small sprigs of dill to serve
- Salmon roe to serve (optional)
Method
- Blanch asparagus until tender crisp but still bright green. Cut spears in half and then set aside.
- To prepare Horseradish Cream, combine all ingredients.
- Cut each salmon slice into 10cm x 5cm pieces. Place on board and spread each slice with a little of the Horseradish Cream. Top with 4 pieces of asparagus and roll into a neat small parcel. Squeeze a little lemon juice over each roll.
- Arrange rolls on serving plates. Top each roll with a small sprig of dill and, if using, spoon a little salmon roe on top.
Tips
- Briefly blanch chive leaves to soften and use to tie up salmon rolls into neat bundles.
- For delicious variation include avocado slices or cucumber strips in roll and serve garnished with pearls of finger lime.
- For this recipe to be gluten free, avoid using stocks, sauces and condiments containing wheat. Take care to check ingredient labels on all products you use.
