Smoked Irish salmon with chive pancakes
Cook:
30 mins
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.
