Cucumber, Cream Cheese & Smoked Salmon Boats
Cucumber, Cream Cheese & Smoked Salmon Boats
Back to school lunch ideas :-)
Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 small cucumber
- 110 g cream cheese 3 tbsp
- 15 g sour cream 1 tbsp
- ½ tbsp chopped dill or fennel
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Pinch black pepper
- 60 g smoked salmon finely diced (2-3 slices)
Method
- Wash the cucumber and pat dry. Slice in half lengthwise. Using a melon baller scoop out the seeds so the cucumber resembles the inside of a boat or canoe. Cut into 3 cm lengths.
- Mix cream cheese, sour cream, dill, lemon juice, black pepper until blended. Fold in the smoked salmon.
- Spoon approximately 1 tbsp of this mixture onto each piece of hollowed-out cucumber. Garnish with fresh dill or fennel.
Maggie's Tips
• If kiddies are averse to green, peel the cucumber
• Best kept chilled in a cool bag
