Yield 18-20 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 16

SEAFOOD
18-20 thin slices smoked salmon
1 cup small cooked shrimp - rinsed, drained and dried
FILLING
1/3 cup whipping cream - whipped to stiff peak stage
1/2 cup cream cheese - softened and whipped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fine lemon zest
1 tablespoon bottled horseradish (not creamy type) - drained and dried
1 tablespoon small capers - rinsed and dried
fine sea salt and white pepper to taste
GARNISH
long thin stems fresh chives
fresh dill sprigs
lemon wedges/slices
caper berries with stems - rinsed and dried

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, whisk whipped cream into whipped cream cheese until evenly blended. Stir in the remaining filling ingredients (except shrimp) until well combined. Gently mix in the shrimp. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill in fridge for 2 hours to firm up the filling. Lay slice of smoked salmon on work surface with one short side facing you. Working quickly, spread a spoonful of shrimp filling in centre of salmon slice. Wrap short edges of salmon toward centre over the filling to create a roll. Tie a stem of chives around centre of roll to secure and tuck a small dill sprig under the tie. Continue making rolls in the same manner. Place rolls on a non-metallic platter/serving tray, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 3-4 hours. Just prior to serving, garnish platter with lemon wedges/slices, dill sprigs and caper berries. Or, serve 2-3 rolls, with same garnishes, on individual plates as a starter course. COOK'S NOTES - the shrimp filling makes enough for 18-20 rolls - adjust ingredient amounts proportionately depending on how many rolls you wish to make - if the salmon is very thin and fragile, you may have to use 2 slices (one on top of the other) for each roll - be sure all the ingredients for the shrimp filling are dry before adding to the cream cheese mixture or the filling may be too soft/runny - if fresh chives are not available, use long, slender tops of green onions - rinse, wrap in a paper towel and microwave a few seconds just until barely wilted but still bright green (must be wilted in order to tie) - caper berries are available at gourmet food shops and are about the size of small olives with stems attached, dull greenish-brown in colour with contrasting stripes, packed with brine in glass jars

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of smoked salmon. But I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors all worked together really well and the rolls were very tasty.

These rolls are so delicious and refreshing. The smoked salmon and shrimp are a perfect combination and the dill cream cheese adds a nice touch of flavor.
