FOOD Recipe: Smoked Halibut Roulade Serves 8 Ingredients: 500g smoked halibut Juice of 1 lemon 300g cream cheese 100g horseradish 75g softened butter Bunch of chives Method 1. Put aside 4 whole slices (depending on size) of smoked halibut. You will need these later to make the outside layer of your roulade. 2. Put the remainder of the smoked halibut into a food processor along with the lemon juice, cream cheese, horseradish and butter. Blitz to a paste whilst still retaining some texture. 3. Chop the chives, add to mixture. Check and adjust taste if necessary-avoid adding salt. 4. On a piece of greaseproof paper or cling film(about A4 size)place the slices of smoked halibut, smoked side down, slightly overlapping each other. 5. With the longer side facing you, spoon the blitzed filling evenly along the closest edge. Lift the edge of the paper and roll away from you to form the roulade. Place flat in the fridge to set for 1 hour or until required. 6. Present your roulade whole or cut into slices, garnish and serve with your choice of breadsticks, blinis etc. From the kitchen of Ganders Restaurant www.goilife.co.uk 119
