Salmon parfait with homemade prawn toast
Ingredients
Salmon Parfait
400g Smolked salmon
125g Unsalted butter
125ml Whipping cream
Zest of half a lemon
Prawn Toast
6 slices of bread
150g raw, de-veined, prawns

Salt and pepper to season
Zest of half a lemon
Fresh dill and lemon thyme

METHOD
1. To make the prawn toast roughly chop the prawns and garlic and blitz in a food processor with the egg, lemon zest and salt and pepper to create a paste.
2. Spread the mixture generously over one side of the sliced bread and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
3. Shallow fry in hot oil (sesame seed side down) for 4 minutes until golden brown. Next flip the bread and fry for a further 1 minute.
4. To make the terrine, heat up the oil and butter in a saucepan to make an emulsion.
5. Next add the chopped smoked salmon and blitz in a food processor with lemon zest to form a smooth mouse.
6. Pour the mousse into a terrine mould or serving glass and set in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
7. To serve add pickles of your choice (we used pickled cucumber) and marie rose sauce. Finish with fresh dill and lemon thyme.
