Mackerel with Horseradish Cream
I love all smoked fish and you can of course change the mackerel for almost any other smoked fish.
Ingredients
- 1 package crustades or puff pasty canape shells
- 2 filets of good quality smoked mackerel or other smoked fish.
- 2-3 dl whipping cream
- 1-2 tbsp freshly grated horseradish you decide how much you would like to use
- 2 tbls capers small ones, nonpareil variety
- 1 tbls finely chopped parsely or chives
- pinch salt and a little freshly ground black pepper.
Instructions
- Remove the mackerel from the package, remove the skin and make sure there are no bones left
- Whip the cream and half way through add the horseradish a big pinch of salt and a small grating of black pepper. Continue whipping until the cream is stiff.
- Taste for salt and pepper.
- Arrange the pre made crustades on the counter and put a small spoonful of the whipped cream in the bottom of each one. A small piping bag will make this quicker.
- Then break up the mackerel and place a small bit of it into each crustade.
- Decorate the top with 2 or 3 capers and sprinkle with the chopped parsley or chives.
Notes
These won't sit very long. It really depends on the crustades you buy. The puff pastry ones last a lot longer. The one shown here that I can get become rather soggy after an hour. So these are the last ones I make before my guests come.
