Toast With Shrimp & Roe (Toast Skagen) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
4 slices of good-quality white bread, crusts removed
butter (for frying)
300 g peeled cooked shrimp (fresh is best) or 300 g prawns (fresh is best)
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 -3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill (and extra for garnishing)
100 -150 g fish roe (bleak or whitefish)
one lemon, quartered
Preparation
-
Melt the butter on a frying pan and saute the bread slices on both sides until golden. Place on a kitchen paper to drain excess fat.
Drain the shrimps, cut into smaller pieces (optional; I left them whole, as they look prettier).
Mix mayonnaise, mustard and dill, fold in the shrimps. Taste for seasoning - if necessary, add some salt and pepper.
Spoon the mixture on top of the bread slices.
Garnish with a large spoonful of caviar and some dill. Serve with a lemon quarter.
