Number Of Ingredients 7

3 smoked mackerel fillets
150 g cream cheese with chives
100 g creme fraiche
3 tsp horseradish sauce
2 Tbsp freshly chopped dill
juice of one lemon
dill to decorate

Steps:

  • 1. Place the fillets of mackerel in suitable dish and heat thought in a microwave until they are hot, but still touchable. Whilst still hot peel / scrap the skin off each fillet and check for bones. Put one fillet to one side.
  • 2. Place the cream cheese, creme fraiche horseradish dill and about 2 tbsps of lemon juice into a bowl and mix well. Shred two of the fillets and add to cheese mix in bowl. Spoon cheese / fish mix into a liquidiser / food processor (I use a hand blender chopper attachment) and blend until smooth.

  • 4. You can either serve this in a bowl with crudities or on top of https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/snack/snack-crackers/crostini-2.html?p=19 decorated with some fresh dill.
