Ingredients
For the sandwiches
- 4-5 slices medium-cut wholemeal bread from a large loaf
- 100g smoked salmon
- 1 sachet powdered gelatine
- 90ml just-boiled water
- 250g cream cheese or reduced fat soft cheese
- 20g watercress, finely chopped
- 80g cucumber, finely chopped
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
To garnish and serve
- Thin cucumber slices
- Watercress sprigs
- Lemon wedges
Instructions
- 从面包片上切下12个矩形，和模具的间隔大小一样——一旦你切准了一个，就把它作为其他矩形的模板。
- Repeat with the smoked salmon: it’s fine if you have to patch them. Keep these refrigerated. Chop any trimmings from these rectangles very finely and set aside.
- Sprinkle the powdered gelatine into the just-boiled water and leave for 5-10 minutes to completely dissolve into a clear liquid, stirring occasionally.
- 将奶油芝士、豆瓣菜、黄瓜和任何三文鱼辅料混合。用盐和胡椒粉调味。充分搅拌明胶液体，然后将混合物倒入硅胶模具的隔间。把长方形的面包放在上面。Chill in the fridge for about 1 hour, or until set.
- Carefully remove from the silicone mould, inverting onto a work surface or serving plate so that the bread is on the base. Lay the smoked salmon rectangles on top to create a ‘sandwich’. Garnish with cucumber slices and watercress and serve with lemon wedges.
Tip:To take to a picnic, pack in a suitable container, with non-stick baking parchment between the layers. Keep in a cool box or bag with freezer blocks to keep chilled.
