Best Smoked Salmon With Black Pepper Potato Chips Recipes

POTATO GALETTES WITH SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, then cut them lengthwise in long matchsticks, using the finest julienne blade of a mandoline. Spread the potatoes out neatly in one layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, roll the towel up, and squeeze lightly to dry the potatoes without breaking them up. Put the potatoes into a bowl and toss them with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small (8-inch) omelet pan (a saute pan with sloped sides) over medium heat. Add half of the potatoes to the pan and press lightly with a large metal spatula to make the shreds lie flat. Cook them undisturbed for 5 minutes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the butter around the edge of the pan and cook the potatoes for another 3 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned on the bottom. Loosen the galette gently around the edge with the metal spatula and flip it over. (Be careful! The oil and butter underneath are very hot!) Add another tablespoon of butter around the edge and cook the galette for 4 to 5 minutes longer, until the second side is nicely browned. With the metal spatula, transfer the galette to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes and butter to make a second galette.
• Place the two galettes on a cutting board. Spread each galette with 2 tablespoons of the creme fraiche and a layer of smoked salmon, covering the galette completely. Sprinkle with minced chives and sprinkle lightly with salt. Use a large chef's knife to cut each galette into 6 wedges and serve hot.

SMOKED SALMON CHIPS

Steps:

• 1. Divide each salmon slice in two, roll them to an appropriate size, and place them on the chips.
• 2. Put the crème fraiche in a plastic bag and cut a little hole in one corner to make the bag work as a piping bag. Pipe about 1/2 tsp onto each salmon chip.
• 3. Decorate with chive, thyme, or dill.
• Simplify:
• Make it easy on yourself by placing all the ingredients on a tray and letting your guests compose their own hors d'oeuvres.
• For a challenge:
• Spice it up by using different types of chips such as sweet potato, delta blue potato, or daikon radish. Works well with caviar instead of salmon, too. You can also make your own chips in the oven with thin slices of potatoes.

CRACKED BLACK PEPPER SALMON

Steps:

• Spread 1/2 the black pepper on a plate.
• Smear 1 tsp olive oil over one side of the salmon fillets.
• Lay the fillet, oiled side down in the pepper.
• Lift and put on a baking sheet, peppered side up.
• Repeat the process with the second fillet.
• Bake at 350 F or 180 C for around 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
