crostini with smoked salmon & sour cream

crostini with smoked salmon & sour cream

serves 4 as a starter


This is one of those effortless starters that feels a little bit special but can

be made  in a flash from ingredients from your supermarket.
If you don’ t have access to capers, chopped chives or parsley would work well. It’s more about getting some visual greenery and freshness.
Baguettes are  lovely for crostini but  I’ve also  used  crackers or larger
slices of sourdough cut into small, bite sized pieces.

8 thin slices baguette
100g (3 oz) smoked salmon, sliced sour cream
capers
lemon cheeks, to serve
Toast baguette slices lightly on one side.
Layer each round with smoked salmon, top with a dollup of sour cream and sprinkle with a few capers and lots of freshly ground black pepper.
