Serves: 2
Takes: 15 mins
Ingredients
Zest and juice of 1 unwaxed lemon
1 tbsp caster sugar
½ cucumber, shaved into ribbons using a peeler
2 heaped tbsp Greek yoghurt
2 tsp dried or fresh dill, chopped (plus extra to serve, optional)
1 tsp horseradish sauce
2 slices of rye bread or sliced butter, to spread
1 tsp zup mustard (or Dijon mustard)
125g roasted salmon
Method
Mix the lemon juice and sugar in a bowl (add extra zest if you prefer a sharp flavour), then add the cucumber ribbons and toss to coat. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yoghurt with the lemon zest, dill and horseradish; season to taste.
Toast the bread, then spread with butter and mustard. Top with the salmon and a dollop of the yoghurt mix, then add the cucumber and extra dill, if you like.
