Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
½ \N | Cucumber, very thinly sliced |
½ cup | Thinly sliced onion rings |
¼ cup | Castor sugar or granulated sugar ground fine in a food processor |
1¼ teaspoon | Salt |
2 tablespoons | Cider vinegar plus |
2 teaspoons | Cider vinegar |
1 \N | Piece smoked Irish salmon, (8 ounce) cut from a whole side (8 to 12) |
1 \N | Sprig flat-leaf parsley, fennel or chervil, to garnish |
Mix the cucumber with the onion, castor sugar, salt and cider vinegar.
Leave to marinate for about 1 hour.
Cut the smoked salmon into 16 to 20 slices about ⅛- to ¼-inch thick, cutting straight down onto the skin. Wrap one slice around your finger and set in the center of a large plate. Wrap 3 or 4 more slices around the center slice to form a rosette. Repeat the process to make 3 more rosettes.
Drain the cucumber slices and arrange them in a circle around the smoked salmon rosettes. Garnish with sprigs of flat-leaf parsley, dill or chervil.
