Ingredients
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 200 grams smoked salmon
- 2 pieces large flour tortilla or flatbread
- 12 pieces baguette slices (optional, if not using tortillas)
- 2 tablespoons capers (optional)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, freshly chopped dill, lemon zest, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Step 2
Lay a large flour tortilla or flatbread flat on a clean surface. For baguette slices, skip to step 6.
Step 3
Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla.
Step 4
Place slices of smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese spread, covering the surface evenly.
Step 5
If desired, sprinkle capers on top of the salmon for added flavor.
Step 6
Gently roll the tortilla tightly into a cylinder. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10-15 minutes to set. For baguette slices, simply spread the cream cheese mixture onto each slice of bread and top with a piece of smoked salmon.
Step 7
Remove the roll from the refrigerator and slice it into 1-inch pinwheels, discarding the ends for a cleaner presentation.
Step 8
Arrange the pinwheels or topped baguette slices on a serving platter, and garnish with additional dill or lemon slices if desired.
Step 9
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
