Smoked salmon omelette rolls with shredded potato salad
Ingredients
Shredded potato salad
- 200g new potatoes
- 2 spring onions
- 1 lemon, juice only
- Bunch fresh coriander
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Omelette rolls
- 2 large eggs
- Smoked salmon
- Small bunch watercress, stalks removed, chopped
- Salt and pepper
- 40g clarified butter
Dressing
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 3 lemons, juice only
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced
- 2 tbsp crème fraîche
- 1 tbsp grated fresh horseradish
Croûtes
- 4 slices of white bread, 1cm think
Method
- Start by preparing the potato salad by boiling the new potatoes in their skin for about 20 mins until tender, then drain.
- Peel half the potatoes and then shred with a cheese grater.
- Slice the spring onions and add to the shredded potato.
- Season with salt and pepper and add the lemon juice, olive oil and chopped coriander and set aside.
- To prepare the sauce, mix the crème fraîche with horseradish, add the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Prepare the croûtes by cutting out 4 rounds from each slice of bread, using a 3.5cm plain pastry cutter and toasting under the grill on one side only, set aside.
- Break the eggs into a bowl, beat them very lightly and season with salt.
- Slice the salmon into fine slices and mix the watercress leaves with the salmon and set aside.
- Gently heat a 20cm non-stick pan with a very flat base, then brush with a little softened butter.
- Pour one quarter of the beaten egg into the pan and tilt to spread the egg thinly and evenly over the surface, as if you were making a crepe.
- Cook over a low heat for about a minute, until the omelette has set.
- Remove from the pan and slide on a sheet of greaseproof paper or a plate. It should be cooked on one side only to keep it soft and malleable.
- Make two more omelettes in the same way.
- Place the salmon and watercress mix in the centre of the omelette and a spoonful of sauce.
- Roll the omelettes gently but firmly and evenly and slice each one in two.
- Divide the potato salad between 2 plates and arrange 2 omelettes on each plate on top of the croûtes and serve immediately.
