Smoked Salmon Tartine with Green Olive Relish











If I don't make something like this for my lunch as soon as I get home from the gym, the cooking chocolate in the pantry doesn't stand a chance.


Smoked Salmon Tartine with Green Olive Relish
slightly adapted from Bill Granger's Every Day
Serves 1

4 large green olives, pitted and thinly sliced
1/4 small lemon, pith removed and segmented
2 teaspoons baby capers, drained
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
2 thick slices of sourdough bread (I used seeded sourdough)
40g fresh ricotta
40g smoked salmon

Put the sliced olives, lemon segments, capers and chopped parsley into a small bowl and toss gently.

Toast the bread until it is golden.

Spread the ricotta onto the toasted bread, top with salmon and spoon the olive relish over.

  3. For me, it's always the bowl of leftover frosting....
    Mum is a smoked fish lover, so this will be a perfect lunch for her! I love the green olive relish, paired with some hummus I think it will be a little bite of heaven :)

    1. Yes, this green olive relish and hummus is perfect and often my standby when I don't have smoked salmon in the house.
