#3..
Ingredients (serves 6)
200g smoked salmon, thinly sliced
2 x 250g punnets qukes, quartered lengthways
2 avocados, halved, stone removed, peeled, thinly sliced
2 tbs horseradish cream
2 tbs fresh lemon juice
2 tbs olive oil
1 bunch watercress, sprigs picked, washed
Method
Divide the smoked salmon, quke and avocado among serving plates.
Whisk together the horseradish cream, lemon juice and oil in a jug. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over a little dressing. Top with watercress and serve with the remaining dressing.

(Qukes are baby Lebanese cucumbers, or you could just use normal cucumbers)

Enjoy =)

a simple idea could be

1) with boiled small potatoes, spring onion, celery and creme freche, olive oil and salt/black pepper

or

2) with white celery, mangos, lettuce salad, boiled eggs, a spoon of mustard and 1/2 spoon of creme freche, olive oil, almonds. (yummy).

Use the lettuce leaves to cover the plates and decorate, then cut the salmon, celery, eggs and the mango in small slices.

Boil the almonds for a few miutes before putting them into a blender and then mix them with the mustard, creme freche, olive oil, and salt /pepper in order to garnish the dishes.

At a wedding I recently attended they had a starter salad with baby lettuces, thinly sliced cucumber and red onion and the smoked salmon on top. Dill always goes well with salmon so make a vinegrette using dill, a little dijon and white wine vinegar, olive oil for a light drizzle so you don't compete with the smoked flavor of the salmon.

Funny! I just made my dinner list! I am going to make a blue cheese bacon dressing and add smoked mozzarella red onion croutons and cherry tomatoes and just neatly lay my salmon on the top. May serve garlic bread with it. I like it best with spinach leaves but with the price of food I may have to use what is on sale! Another good dressing is Cesar and grated Parmesan on the top! Light a couple candles and enjoy a cold glass of wine! ENJOY!!! Chow!!!!

This may sound strange, but sliced strawberries go really well. Add that to some rocket and a mustard and honey dressing and it's very tasty indeed.

I know it sounds weird, but try it. You'll be hooked!

If you happen to have any fennel or cucumber about, add that in aswell.

lettuce, cucumbers, dill sauce, capers, sliced bell and holland peppers, shaved carrot, grape tomato, red onion, black olive slices and an edible purple orchid on top.....thank you very much (bow) ...........oops....and dried cranberries and pine nuts

Any of these - Feta, olives, dill, lemon juice, boiled potatoes, watercress, boiled eggs, black pepper, vinegar dressing

Asparagus, Shiitake mushrooms or button mushrooms, red onion, romaine and red leaf lettuce

New potatoes or pasta. You need something starchy otherwise it'll not be filling.

potato's and peppers.

rocket leaves as they are nice and peppery. Toasted pine nuts.

Bread;
Fresh Rye or seed loaf

jacket potato or french bread.. or both
