A recipe for a sandwich with smoked mackerel and cucumber. A delicious dish for a high tea or a light lunch. Delicious, skinny and healthy with whole wheat bread and fish.
I love to high-tea. To sit with a few friends for an afternoon and small talk while drinking tea and nice treats. Certainly not only sweet thing (although a big hooray when there is something with chocolate for a chocoholic like me), but a nice sandwich can be great. It looks so delicate and elegant.
I try to vary in sort, most of the times a serve a vegetarian, meat and fish variety, so everyone can enjoy her own preference. Today I blog one of the fish sandwiches that I make and, very healthy, with whole wheat bread.
Enough fibres, omega's and a cup of green tea with a lot of laughter. A great afternoon!
Because...
- Smoked mackerel could contain some bone you flake it preferably with your hands, so you can feel whether accidentally there is some bone left.
- you cut the cucumber into thin slices with the cheese slicer, can you spread the cucumber evenly over the slice of bread so everywhere there is a bit cucumber.
- you roll the cuts in plastic and put them a half hours in the refrigerator, they are slightly harder, making it easier to cut beautiful slices.
- you just love dill use that as a great replacement of chives (which is a good combination with fish);
- You don't like mackerel that much you can also use other fish varieties like smoked salmon or trout filet;
- This recipe is great with a high tea, but I also tip it when you've got a brunch. A nice plate with al kinds of sandwiches looks great on a table.
It's a good taste!
