Festive and lavish Christmas day dish.
Ingredients:
  • 600g sliced smoked salmon (see note)
  • 500g cream cheese, softened
  • 63.13 gm pure cream
  • 20.00 ml finely grated lemon rind
  • 82.50 ml finely chopped fresh dill
  • 40.00 ml drained capers
  • 1 bunch watercress, trimmed
  • Crusty bread, to serve
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, to serve
Instructions:
  • Remove any dark edges from the salmon. Combine cream cheese, cream, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill, and capers in a food processor. Season with pepper and blend until smooth.
  • Prepare a terrine or loaf pan by greasing it and lining the base and sides with plastic wrap, leaving a 5cm overhang at the long ends.
  • Lay down a base of smoked salmon in the pan. Spread a thin layer of 1/3 cup cream cheese mixture over the salmon using a spatula. Repeat the layers, ending with a final layer of salmon. Gently press down and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
  • When ready to serve, transfer the dish onto a platter or board, unwrap, trim the ends, slice, drizzle with oil, and enjoy with watercress sprigs and crusty bread.
