Neat register rolls with a sharp filling, like files in a hacked population register.
Ingredients
- 1 large cucumber
- 200 g smoked salmon
- 100 g cream cheese
- 2 tbsp chopped capers
- 2 tbsp grated horseradish (jar)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- coarse black pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 4 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tsp sugar
- salt
Method
- Wash the cucumber and use a cheese slicer or mandoline to cut 8 long thin strips.
- Mix cream cheese, horseradish, capers, lemon juice, dill and a pinch of salt to a smooth filling.
- Place a slice of salmon on each cucumber strip and spread with a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture.
- Roll the strips tightly into rolls.
- Mix white wine vinegar, sugar and plenty of coarse black pepper into a sharp dressing.
- Place two rolls per plate, tightly next to each other to form a row of files.
- Drizzle the dressing alongside and sprinkle generously with extra pepper.
Serving notes
- Ensure the rolls are neatly lined up like an open register.
- Serve on a rectangular plate for the best silhouette.
- Offer extra dressing on the side for those who like even more bite.
