Here's an easy way to use that smoked salmon...





Flake up the smoked salmon (take a fork and pull the fillet apart into small pcs. so it's flakey). In a large pan, melt some butter, saute' 1-2 chopped shallots/green onions and add in the smoked salmon. After it's heated through, add to the pan 1 C. of heavy cream, 1 tsp. of fresh/dried dill weed, 1-2 cloves of minced garlic. Heat through again and season to taste with sea salt %26amp; fresh cracked pepper. If you can find some fresh/frozen green peas (thawed), add them into the mix as well. Turn it on low heat. Serve the smoked salmon mixture over hot pasta or steamed rice.Smoked salmon dinner recipe please?

Pasta al salmone:


Slice the salmon into ribbons with kitchen scissors and fry until opaque in a little butter. Add a carton of double cream (small one will do for 2 of you unless you like lots of sauce) and allow to heat through. Meanwhile cook some pasta according to instructions. When cooked, mix the salmon and cream thoroughly with the pasta and serve with lots of freshly ground black pepper.





I haven't met anyone who doesn't like this and it's very easy - just don't let the cream boil dry!
Smoked Salmon is all ready to eat, I am assuming because I buy it and it is usually by the pound and pre-sliced.Thaw it out completely.


Buy fresh bagel and or mixed mini rolls and slice them in half into a bread basket.


Serve with a cheese plate mainly cream cheese, but cottage cheese is also acceptable and available in containers. Slice up a veggie platter containing tomato, cucumber and lettuce plus any other veggies that complement your salmon. You can offer wine or cold beverage of juice with the meal.


Fruit in a bowl can also be served at the same time, strawberries, blueberries,sliced pineapple, grapes and melon. The colors are lovely on the table. Like a fruit salad presentation.


If you like the fruit represents your dessert course with coffee or tea, maybe a tea cake or cookies.
How about some tasty salmon and sweetcorn cakes. All you need to buy are some potatoes, eggs, bread and salad and you can make a lovely meal quite easily! Here is a link for the recipe:

It does use fresh salmon aswel but you could always substitute this for all smoked salmon.


Good luck and have fun :)
