4 servings | Preparation time 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 tub (200 g) unflavoured cream cheese

1 pkg (100 g) cold-smoked salmon

1 jar (57/35 g) capers

2 tbsp chopped dill

¼ tsp crushed black pepper

Marinated red onion

1 small red onion

1 lemon (organic)

2 tsp sugar

In addition

potato crisps

Start by marinating the onion. Peel and chop the onion. Wash the lemon, grate the peel (2 tsp) and save it for garnishing. Squeeze the juice (1 ½ tbsp). Put the onion, juice and sugar in a tight box with a lid. Shake and allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Soften the cream cheese stirring it and spread it with a spoon on a round serving platter or cutting board (diameter 20–25 cm). Cut the salmon into mouthfuls. Drain the capers. Garnish the cream cheese with salmon, capers, dill, marinated onion and grated lemon peel. Finish with pepper. Serve with potato crisps.

Tip: The cream cheese platter can also be served with bread.
