Smoked Salmon and Quinoa Lunch Pot
This wholesome Scandinavian lunch pot is a perfect blend of flavours and textures. Ready-to-eat quinoa is combined with crisp cucumber and radish slices, then topped with strips of smoked salmon. The dish is finished with a fresh, herby dressing made from soured cream, lemon juice and chopped dill, making it a satisfying and balanced meal for any time of day.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp half-fat soured cream
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 pack dill finely chopped
- 250g pouch ready-to-eat quinoa (we used Merchant Gourmet)
- 1/2 cucumber halved and sliced
- 4 radishes finely sliced
- 100g smoked salmon torn into strips
Method
- Prepare the creamy dressing by whisking the soured cream with the lemon juice in a bowl. Stir in most of the chopped dill, setting aside a quarter of it for later.
- Take a separate bowl and mix the pouch of quinoa with the sliced cucumber and radishes. Add half of the prepared dressing and toss to combine. Season the mixture, then arrange the torn smoked salmon on top and scatter with the reserved dill.
- Transfer the remaining half of the dressing into a small container. Drizzle this over the assembled quinoa pot just before you are ready to eat.
