Potato cakes with smoked salmon


Potato cakes with smoked salmon

Ingredients

For the potato cakes

  • 3 Free Range Eggs
  • 125 ml whole Milk
  • 2 spring onions finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 60 g instant mashed potato mix
  • 40 g Plain Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Lemon Juice

For the topping

  • 75ml sour cream
  • 1 tsp horseradish cream
  • 300 g Smoked Salmon
  • small bunch fresh Dill

Method

For the potato cakes

  1. In a jug, whisk the eggs, milk, finely sliced spring onions and olive oil together.
  2. Stir in the instant mashed potato mix, plain flour, baking powder and the lemon juice.
  3. Heat a flat griddle and drop tablespoon-sized dollops of the mixture onto the hot griddle.
  4. Cook for about 30 seconds a side, or until golden-brown and firm enough at the sides to flip.

For the topping

  1. Once you have made the pancakes, mix the sour cream and horseradish cream together. Add a dollop of the horseradish cream on top of each pancake once they've cooled a little. Tear off strips of smoked salmon and arrange the small slices on each pancake.
  2. Decorate each salmon-topped pancake with a tiny feather of dill.
