Smoked Salmon & Rice Salad Parcels

It’s a luxury for me to be able to eat raw or smoked salmon slices once in a while. The taste of the raw fish slices which melt in your mouth is reason enough for one to spend over-the-top money for the really good quality ones. It is also a great idea to use smoked fish slices to make a parcel out of rice and salad, so that you can gobble up all the goodness in it once and for all.

Ingredients:

  • Smoked salmon: 8 long slices
  • Rice: cooked from 1 cup
  • Cucumber: 1/2, peeled & diced
  • Feta cheese: 200g, cubed
  • Cherry tomato: 8, quartered
  • Mayonnaise: 2 tbsp
  • Lime juice: from 1/2 big lime + extra for garnish
  • Parsley: 1 stalk, finely chopped + extra for garnish
  • Salt: 1/2 tsp
  • Ground blackpepper: 1/2 tsp

Method:

  1. Line ramekins with cling film.Place smoked salmon into ramekins, overlapping at the edges.
  2. Mix together rice, cucumber, feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, mayonnaise, lime juice and parsley.
  3. Season with salt and blackpepper to taste.
  4. Scoop rice mixture into ramekins. Fold salmon over rice to encase the mixture. Wrap everything up in cling film.
  5. Chill in fridge for 1hr. Pull cling film up and out to remove the parcel from ramekin. Discard cling film.
  6. Garnish with lime wedges and parsley to serve.

Serving:
4 parcels (4 persons as appetiser)
