Beetroot Gravadlax and Pickled Cucumber

This salmon has been carefully cured with beetroot to give it a vibrant pink hue. The vivid colours are fabulous as part of a sharing platter. Serve with a sharp, tangy pickle to help cut through the richness of the salmon. We think these pickled cucumbers are perfect.

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g gravadlax with beetroot 1 pack
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp coarse sea salt
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • ½ tsp coriander seeds
  • 1 handful dill leaves

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the cucumber by slicing thinly in a julienne style, using a potato peeler to create ribbons, or pushing through a spiralizer.
  • Toss the cucumber ribbons with the salt. Leave in a colander for 15 minutes then squeeze out any excess moisture with your hands. Pat the ribbons dry with a tea towel or kitchen roll.
  • Mix the white wine vinegar, caster sugar, coriander seeds and dill leaves together in a bowl, then coat the cucumber ribbons with the mix.
  • Assemble the beetroot gravadlax on a sharing board, with the pickled cucumbers alongside.

Notes

When assembling a fresh seafood platter, we like to add cooked whole king prawns and North Atlantic prawns coated in a rich marie rose sauce, with lemon wedges and brown bread to serve.
