How to Cook Julie's Salmon & Prawn with Lime
- Mix the crème fraîche with the horseradish and a little salt and freshly-ground black pepper. Arrange the smoked salmon and prawns on individual plates, then top with a good dollop of the horseradish cream.
- For the dressing, zest one of the limes then extract the juice from both. Whisk the lime juice and zest with the honey, grated ginger and a little salt and freshly-ground black pepper. Then whisk in the olive oil. Toss the salad in the dressing and pile on top of the salmon and prawns (any remaining dressing can be drizzled around the plates). Serve with crusty bread for spectacular results (and my everlasting admiration!).
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
This stunning starter can be assembled ahead, then topped with dressed leaves just before serving. Also, if you have the time and the inclination, you can prepare your own Smoked Salmon
Whatever you do, don't go for fruity wines, sweet wines or oaky/woody wines because wines with too many tannins make fish taste unpleasantly metallic.

February 08 2015 This is just brilliant! Looks professional, tastes divine and everyone things you're a genius. For those of you who don't like smoked salmon, substitute it for avocado or leave it out all together. Winner!! 100% shayfox (2 reviews) |

The great joy of Bruno's Fish Pie is that it is fantastically simple and doesn't involve poaching the fish or making a tedious white sauce.
In case you've not come across them before, "Queenies" are small scallops about ½" - ¾" (1cm - 2cm) diameter - sometimes called "bay scallops"
