Description

For my husband's surprise birthday last year, I prepared five appetisers, all of which were very popular with the guests. I've already shared the recipes for gingerbread with foie gras, quail egg croustades and mushroom cups. Finally, just in time for the festive season, here are the salmon and goat's cheese croustades with herbs – a real hit! Tip: make your own crispy croustades with filo pastry!

Ingredients
  • Ingredients for 12 pieces
  • 12 shortcrust pastry or filo pastry tartlets or cups
  • 4 tranches smoked salmon
  • 4 cs finely diced cucumber
  • 4 cs chopped fresh herbs ((flat-leaf parsley, dill, chives))
  • 150 g fresh goat's cheese
  • 50 g cottage cheese
  • salt
  • freshly ground pepper
Instructions
  1. 1
    TRADITIONAL METHOD
    Preparation
    1. Mixture to prepare (in advance if necessary):
    In a salad bowl, mix the goat's cheese with the fromage blanc, 2 tablespoons of diced cucumber, 2 slices of chopped salmon and the herbs (keep a little aside for garnishing). Season lightly with salt and generously with pepper.
    2. Last-minute training:
    Fill the tartlets just before serving to keep them crisp. Top with the filling, then add a small piece of salmon and a little cucumber and remaining herbs.

    Home-made variation: croustades in brick pastry
    Butter 3 small squares of brick pastry (approx. 6 cm) with a brush.
    Arrange them in a mini muffin tin, overlapping them and staggering the points.
    Bake for 8 minutes at 190°C until golden brown.
    Leave to cool completely before garnishing.
