Smoked salmon Rolls with cream cheese and dill.




So I was looking for something easy to do for a Christmas starter. I wanted to do something with smoked salmon. I saw Gordan Ramsey video on you tube (below ) Searched the Internet and found this here from Closet Cooking
And also here from the The Culinary Chase




Suncheon makes smoked salmon rolls


My recipe
Courgette cut in thin strips and marinated in a little salt pepper and olive oil
Cream Cheese,
Dill or mint or spring onion,
Lemon juice ,
Smoked salmon .
Lay the courgette down lay a smoked salmon strip on top near the top of the strip add a little of your cream cheese lemon juice dill mixture. Roll
Drizzle with a little balsamic vinegar .

My first idea to look for smoked salmon rolls came from
Gordon Ramsey's Courgette Rolls

Slice the courgettes lengthway
s, using a swivel vegetable peeler - you'll need 24 long strips. Drizzle some of the olive oil and balsamic over two large plates and lay the strips flat, trying not to overlap. Sprinkle with more oil and balsamic, cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 20 mins. Can be prepared up to 6 hrs ahead.

  1. Mix the ricotta with lemon juice and seasoning to taste, then mix in the basil and pine nuts. Place 1 tsp of the ricotta mixture onto one end of a courgette strip and roll up. Repeat until you have used up all the filling. Arrange rollsup right on a plate and grind over some black pepper. Drizzle with a little more oil and balsamic vinegar to serve.
