Best 5 Smoked Salmon Omelets With Red Onions And Capers Recipes

OPEN-FACED SMOKED SALMON OMELET

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and arrange the oven rack in the highest position.
• Put the eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk until frothy.
• Melt the butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture and let sit until the bottom starts to cook. Using a rubber spatula, slowly push the cooked egg from 1 side of the skillet to the other, allowing the raw egg to reach the bottom and cook--this creates fluffiness and keeps the bottom from burning.
• When the omelet is cooked on the bottom and the top is still runny, place the skillet just under the broiler with the oven door open and the handle sticking out, and broil until the omelet rises and browns lightly, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, flip the omelet in the skillet and cook briefly, to finish.)
• Scatter the cream cheese and smoked salmon over the omelet; then sprinkle with the onion and capers. Broil again to warm the topping, about 30 seconds
• Transfer the omelet to a cutting board, and cut into 4 triangles. Divide the omelets among plates and garnish with the lemon slices and dill.

SMOKED SALMON WITH CAPERS, RED ONIONS AND LEMON FAST2EAT

Steps:

• Scald the thinly sliced onion twice. Just throw boiled water on it, drain, rinse with cold water, drain and repeat the process. Or leave the sliced onion soaked in salt ice water for at least 30 minutes. This will give it a smoother flavour and reduces their bitterness and pungency.
• Be sure to get high quality, sliced smoked salmon.
• Artfully arrange the smoked salmon slices along on a large serving platter.
• Spread the red onion slices over the smoked salmon slices.
• Scatter the capers over the top of the platter.
• If using, place a small bunch of dill at the top and sprinkle with the pepper.
• Arrange the lemon slices around the platter.
• Serve salmon platter with crackers and/or bread.

CUCUMBER CUPS WITH DILL CREAM AND SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese, chopped dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, and black pepper together in a bowl. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon cheese mixture into each cucumber cup. Top each cup with 1 salmon strip and 1 dill sprig.
