Ingredients
- 250 grams smoked salmon
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium cucumber
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the cream cheese, finely chopped dill, and chives until well combined.
Step 2
Add the lemon juice, rinsed capers, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
Step 3
Trim the ends off the cucumber, then slice it lengthwise into thin, ribbon-like strips using a mandoline or a vegetable peeler.
Step 4
Lay a piece of plastic wrap on a flat surface, and place the smoked salmon slices on it, slightly overlapping to form a rectangle.
Step 5
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface of the salmon.
Step 6
Place a couple of cucumber ribbons across one end of the salmon base.
Step 7
Gently start rolling the salmon over the cucumber ribbons, using the plastic wrap to help keep it tight, until you form a log.
Step 8
Wrap the salmon roll tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow it to set.
Step 9
Remove the roll from the refrigerator, unwrap it, and slice into 1-inch thick slices.
Step 10
Serve immediately as a light appetizer or refrigerate until ready to serve.
