Ingredients


For the cake:

  • 2 packs of IBIS Smørbrød Classic
  • 1 bunch of radishes
  • 1/2 bunch cucumber
  • 1/2 bunch dill
  • 400 g cream cheese
  • 150 g sour cream
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 small avocado
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 300 g smoked salmon
  • 2 tbsp trout caviar

For the rim:

  • 1 bunch of chives
  • 150 ml cream
  • 1 tbsp freshly grated horseradish (alternatively horseradish from a jar)

Instruction

Line a loaf tin with 3 slices of smørbrød. Wash and clean the radishes and cut into thin slices. Wash the cucumber and cut into three pieces. Remove the seeds from one third and finely dice. Cut one third into thin slices. Cut one third lengthways into thin strips. Wash the dill and pluck fine sprigs.

Whisk the cream cheese with the sour cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then divide the mixture evenly between three bowls.

Halve the avocado, remove the stone, dice the flesh and mix with the crushed garlic clove and lime juice in a bowl of cream cheese mixture. Cover the base of the tart evenly with the mixture. Place 3 slices of smørbrød on top and press down lightly.

Set aside 100 g smoked salmon for the garnish. Cut the remaining smoked salmon into small pieces and add to a bowl of cream cheese and sour cream mixture. Cover the second base with the mixture and top with the diced radish and cucumber. Cover a third base with 3 more slices of smørbrød. Spread the rest of the cream cheese and sour cream mixture on top, cover with the remaining 3 slices of bread and chill, covered, for 2 hours. Chill the unused ingredients as well.

Turn the smørbrød cake out onto a plate before serving. Whip the cream until stiff and fold in the horseradish. Season with salt and pepper and spread over the tart. Cut the chives into fine rolls and sprinkle over the edge of the tart.

Spread the reserved salmon over the tart, roll up the cucumber strips and arrange on top with the dill and trout caviar. To serve, line the plates with a few slices of cucumber and place a slice of tart on top. Enjoy your meal!

Preparation time: approx. 25 minutes (plus chilling time)
