Smoked Irish salmon with chive pancakes
This is a really great alternative to sweet pancakes and makes a really sophisticated starter.

For the pancakes:

4 eggs, beaten

140g plain flour

250ml milk

Handful chives, chopped

Vegetable oil, to cook

To serve:

12 slices of smoked salmon, preferably wild Irish salmon

1 lemon, finely sliced

Handful chives, halved

Sour cream

To make the pancakes, whisk the eggs, flour, milk and chopped chives until smooth. Season with pepper and salt.

Heat a medium non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Brush pan with olive oil. Use a ladle to add a spoonful of the pancake batter into the pan. As you want pancakes to be small don’t swirl in the pan. Cook for about 1 min, then flip and cook for 30 seconds on the other side. Repeat until you've made all pancakes and set aside.

Place salmon on top of pancakes. Garnish with a slice of lemon, chives and a dollop of sour cream.
