Ingredients
  • 100g wild salmon slices
  • 60g zucchini (grated and squeezed net weight)
  • 80g full-day cream cheese
  • fine Himalayan pink salt (U.S. option HERE)
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 4-5 fresh mint leaves (chopped)
  • (optional) fresh chive strands
  • (optional) sprig of fresh mint
Instructions
  1. grate zucchini (a medium one will suffice) over a muslin cloth or similar and wring over and over until no more juices leak out.
  2. put 60g of the grated and squeezed zucchini into a mixing bowl, together with the cream cheese, chopped mint and seasoning; stir, taste test and adjust to your preference.
  3. tear a large piece of cling film and position salmon slices over it so as to obtain a neat square or rectangle.
  4. spread the cream cheese mix over the salmon.
  5. roll into a salami shape with the help of the cling film, which will also serve as the wrapper.
  6. twist both ends to close tightly and place in the freezer for 45 minutes, then transfer it to the fridge unless you wish to eat it immediately.
  7. when you're ready to serve it, unwrap the salmon roll and decorate it with chive strands and mint (optional).
Notes
Keep it wrapped and in the coldest part of the fridge, for up to 24 hours before serving. Do not store further.

Metric kitchen scales are an inexpensive yet invaluable gadget to enable accurate measurement of ingredients. Store them upright in a cupboard or over your worktop and they'll only take up a tiny bit of space. Click HERE for the ones I use (UK Link). For U.S. option click HERE.
