Smoked Salmon Fillets in Parma Ham

To serve 2

Ingredients

  • 2 Dunkeld smoked salmon fillets (or fresh salmon fillets also work well)
  • 4 slices Parma ham (or prosciutto, Serrano or other air dried ham)
  • ½ tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp whole grain mustard
  • ¼ tsp freeze-dried dill tops (or some chopped fresh dill)
  • Salt & pepper

Method

  • Pre-heat the oven to 180º C (fan oven) 200º conventional oven.
  • In a small roasting dish mix together the olive oil, mustard, dill, salt & pepper.
  • Lay out the ham slices in pairs (2 for each fillet).
  • Put the salmon filets in the roasting dish and turn them over in the mixture to coat them.
  • Place the fillets on the Parma ham and carefully wrap the ham around the fish.
  • Place in the roasting tin and gently turn to use up any remaining mixture.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes, depending on your oven. In a conventional oven they may need 15 or 16 minutes. It also depends on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
  • This can be prepared as far in advance as you want & is a very useful dinner party dish.
