Smoked Wild Irish Salmon With Chive Pancakes, What a delicious combination: smoked salmon and chive pancakes! This dish is part of Irish cook Kevin Dundon’s dinner menu for St Patrick’s Day that I was delighted to find just recently in the March 2005 edition of the BBC Good Food magazine And I certainly won’t be waiting for St Patrick’s Day 2006 before I try it He describes this as a ‘prepare ahead starter’: the pancakes are served at room temperature One detail in this recipe, I suppose incidental, that really intrigued me was that he doesn’t use commercial spray-on oil A reminder that there really are alternatives to so many of the products that the advertisers try to foist upon us He suggests a simple alternative, one I opted for years ago after reading that commercial spray-on oils contain carcinogenics But I have rarely seen recipes that suggest this I have already posted the side dish to Kevin Dundon’s St Patrick’s Day menu: his scrumptiously creamy Colcannon Next I shall be posting the main course dish: Guinness & Honey Glazed Pork All the courses in his St Patrick’s Day – or ANY day – menu sound just SO delicious!, My, oh my these are superb! The only addition I made was just a wee bit of Kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper served on the salad I was going to wait to serve this at my w i n e o ‘s (Women in Need of Each Other) meeting on St Paddy’s Day but I’ll have to do it all again then We couldn’t wait!, What a delicious combination: smoked salmon and chive pancakes!

My Notes: When I Make This Dish, I Am not Going to Try to Track Down Smoked Wild Irish Salmon, Delicious Though It May Be. I Shall Be Making It With the Best Local Smoked Salmon Available. |
