1 medium thin sliced Smoked Salmon (cured) packet


Full fat Thick Greek yougurt or cream cheese (2 heaped tablespoons)


chopped dill - one spoonful


a pinch of nutmeg, salt and pepper


lemon juice (1 lemon)


This will serve 6-8 people depending on size of ramekins or size of serving.





Mix the above ingredients with a hand blender (reserve half of the cured smoked salmon slices for serving)


Line small ramikins with cling film first, then the slices of cred smoked salmon and fill with the mousse mixture, folding the edges of the salmon lining over the top. Leave to set in the fridge overnight.


Turn out the ramikins and you've got smoked salmon mousse parcels.


If it sounds too fiddly, just serve the firmed up mouse with an ice cream server or two spoons to form an egg shape on to a slice of cured smoked salmon.


Serve with a dusting of paprika, some snipped chives or dill and a wedge of lemon with oatcakes or toast fingers.


Nice also served with rocket and honey and mustard salad dressing.
