Yes we are. Nothing fancy - slices of smoked salmon roughly concertinaed onto the plate with a little horseradish mayonnaise & some salad leaves.

No bread - too filling before the main event.

Smoked salmon mousse - homemade by whizzing a pack of smoked salmon, dollop of creme fraiche, lemon juice and zest, and salt and pepper with a stick blender, then wrapping in more salmon to serve with a small side salad and brown bread.

Thanks both

@FurryLittleTwerp it was this kind of thing I was thinking of but was concerned a dallop of smoked salmon put on a plate wouldnt be up to much!

I'm doing smoked salmon and sour cream on blinis. Scrumptious and not too filling (unless you eat several Blush)

i think we might have it for breakfast, or elevenses, or whatever time it is

NormaSmuff · 23/12/2016 13:50

smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, or bacon for those who dont like smoked salmon.

Not doing it as a starter as I'm just putting everything out on the table at once but will be having salted salmon (got tar-flavoured this year, absolutely delicious) just cut up into small slices. Along with blazed salmon with a lemon and dill sauce and pickled herring. I loves Christmas fish Grin

smoked salmon bit of a staple here, served with salad, avocado and slice of lemon, warmed baguette in oven. i keep as simple as possible before the feast.

I adore smoked salmon as starter - that first bite with first glass of champagne.....wondeful. We do SS, asparagus - lemon and something else - like SS mouse. pepper.

I was led astray last year and got lost in an awful warm pear and palma ham concoction and it was orrible - we didnt do it right Xmas Grin

My mum always does little squares of smoked salmon on German rye bread with cream cheese. Lush. I will be doing this for in-laws myself

Rolls of smoked salmon filled with cream cheese mixed with lemon zest and also prawn cocktail and slices of wholmeal toast. Cucumber and tomato too
