SMOKED SALMON BONBONS WITH GOAT CHEESE, APPEL AND AVOCADO



SMOKED SALMON BONBONS WITH GOAT CHEESE, APPEL AND AVOCADO

I love smoked salmon, I love goat cheese and I love avocado. This starter is so easy to make yet so chic and impressive on the table! But most important of all, it is definitely delicious!

My recipe is based on a recipe I saw got on the Flemish TV channel. I explain it as I made it.



Ingredients (enough to fill 4 – 5 mini oven dishes as in the pic)
6 – 8 slices of smoked salmon
1 spoon of oil
Salt and pepper to your taste
For the filling
50 gr. Of goat cheese
Half of a ripe and soft avocado, peeled
Half of a green apple (like granny smith), peeled
1 spoon of lime juice
1 spoon of sour cream
2 fresh chives, chopped
2 leaves of dill, chopped
Extra kitchen material: mini oven dishes + stretch folio

Method

  1. First I prepared the filling:  cut the avocado roughly in cubes, add the goat cheese and mix them well by smashing the avocado with the help of a fork
  2. Cube the apple; add it into the avocado goat cheese mixture with the rest of the ingredients of the filling. Mix well and set aside.
  3. Take the oven dishes and brush inside with the oil. Cut the stretch folio in squares which are big enough to come out of the oven dish. Lay the stretch folio in the oven dishes as in the picture.
  4. Lay the slices of smoked salmon in the oven dish and make sure the inside part of the oven dish is covered with salmon. Make also sure that the salmon dangles out of the oven dish. For that, cut some pieces that are big enough to spill out of the oven dish in order to cover the inside walls of the oven dish (see the picture to understand where you have to get :))
  5. Fill the salmon with the filling and cover the filling with the pieces of salmon that dangles out of the oven dish (see the pic)
  6. Fold the edges of the cling film together, pull tight and fasten the plastic (see the pic)
  7. Set it in the fridge for a few hours before serving so that the filling becomes firm.
