Ingredients

  • servings unrefined sunflower oil for greasing
  • 300 salmon smoked thinly sliced
  • 100 goat cheese 
  • tbsp chives snipped
  • large avocado ripe peeled finely chopped
  • tbsp juice of lemon 
  • servings chilli sauce sweet for drizzling
  • leaves balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing 

Equipment

Directions

  1. Lightly oil 8 small ramekins. Line with cling film, then the salmon (either 1 large or 2 smaller slices), allowing plenty of overhang.
  2. Gently mix together the cheese, chives and avocado with the lemon juice and plenty of seasoning. Spoon into the salmon-lined ramekins, press down, fold over the overlapping salmon, then cling film to seal in the mixture. Can be made the night before, but if making on the day they should be chilled for at least 4 hrs.
  3. On the day, gently lift the terrines out of the ramekins using the cling film, then remove the film.
  4. Place the terrines on plates with some baby salad leaves tossed in a little vinaigrette.
  5. Drizzle the terrine and plate with sweet chilli sauce.
  6. Serve on their own or with toast.
