Best 3 Smoked Wild Irish Salmon With Chive Pancakes Recipes

RED PEPPER PANCAKES WITH SMOKED SALMON, CAVIAR AND CHIVE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Char the peppers over a flame; place in a bowl and cover to steam until cooled. Peel and seed, reserving the juice.
• Melt the butter in a saucepot and cool. Puree three-quarters of the bell peppers in a blender, then dice and reserve the remainder.
• Whisk to combine the butter, egg yolks, and bell pepper puree. Mix together the flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until smooth, then chill 10 minutes. Whip egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and fold them into the red pepper batter.
• Form the smoked salmon into rosettes.
• Spoon 1/4 cup pancake batter onto a greased pancake skillet over medium heat. Cook until bubbles start to appear, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the bottom is slightly golden, about 3 minutes more.
• Top each pancake with 1 tablespoon of the sauce and a smoked salmon rosette. Dollop a dot of creme fraiche in the center of each rosette. Top with caviar and chives.

SMOKED WILD IRISH SALMON WITH CHIVE PANCAKES

Steps:

• THE DRESSING: Place the wholegrain mustard in a bowl, using a whisk, slowly add the olive oil, then add a squeeze of lemon and set aside.
• THE PANCAKE MIXTURE: Mix together the eggs, flour, milk and chopped chives until smooth and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Heat a medium-sized non-stick pan over a high heat and using a piece of kitchen paper wipe the pan with some vegetable oil. Pour a ladleful of the pancake batter into the pan and swirl to cover the base. Cook for about 1 minute, then flip, cook for 30 seconds more, remove and place on greaseproof paper. Repeat until you've made all six pancakes, then set aside.
• TO SERVE: Arrange handfuls of salad leaves in piles on the side of each of six plates. Fold the pancakes into four and sit next to the leaves. Loosely drape two slices of smoked salmon over the leaves and pancakes. Tuck two slices of lemon and a few chives under the salmon, then drizzle the mustard dressing over everything and serve.
• Kevin Dundon's Notes for preparing this dish in advance: Make the pancakes the day before, stack them with a layer of greaseproof paper between each one and refrigerate.
• My Notes: When I make this dish, I am not going to try to track down smoked wild Irish salmon, delicious though it may be. I shall be making it with the best local smoked salmon available.

SMOKED SALMON HASH WITH FRIED EGG AND CHIVE PANCAKE

Steps:

• Make the hash: Put the potatoes into a small pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 10 minutes, and drain them well. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the salmon, cooked potatoes, and dill. Raise the heat to high and cook an additional 10 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the potatoes begin to brown. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the pancake: Mix the flour, salt, pepper, and sugar in a bowl. Add the beaten eggs, oil, and chives and whisk until the batter is smooth. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. When hot, pour the batter into the skillet about 1/4-cup at a time. Flip the pancakes when small bubbles form on the top and the bottom is golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Make the egg: Using the same pancake skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter over high heat and crack the eggs into the skillet. Allow to become firm before flipping. Cook 30 more seconds
• To serve: Place a pancake on a plate, top with some of the hash, and slide an egg onto the hash. Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill.
