Salmon with pickled cucumber and dill and horseradish yoghurt on rye

  • 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

  1. 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.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yoghurt with the lemon zest, dill and horseradish; season to taste.
  3. 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.
