Tea - Smoked Salmon

ways with tea - smoked salmon:

Picture
Salmon is a great source of omega-3. Fish with high oil content is suitable for smoking as it remains moist and absorbs more smoky flavour. It can be substituted with another type of oily fish such as cod.


SERVES 4
PREPARATION & COOKING TIME: 15 minutes




1. Use flaked tea-smoked salmon in a starter dish with Mandarin pancakes, hoisin sauce, shredded spring onion and shredded cucumber.

2 . For a substantial meal, serve the tea-smoked salmon with boiled multigrain rice and stir-fried vegetables.

3. For a light lunch, make a sandwich by flaking the salmon and mixing with some low- fat mayonnaise, or add the flaked salmon into a bowl of soupy noodles. 

4. Make smoky-flavoured fish cakes by adding some mashed potatoes, chopped carrots/ French beans, and baking them in the oven.
