Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Leek sliced julienne
3 ounces Smoked salmon cut into fine strips
1 tablespoon Walnut oil dressing
8 Quails' eggs; soft boiled
1 teaspoon Chopped chives
8 ounces Smoked cods' roe
1 Shallot; finely chopped
1 Clove garlic; finely chopped
1 tablespoon Olive oil
½ Lemon; juice of
½ tablespoon Tomato puree
½ tablespoon Chopped chives
1 dash Tabasco sauce
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
Cracked black pepper
½ pint Double cream

Directions

Blanch the leek strips then cool in cold water and squeeze dry. Mix the leeks with the smoked salmon strips, then form into two nests and spoon a little dressing on top. Place four eggs in the middle of each nest.

Cut the cods' roe in half and scrape out the inside with a teaspoon. Mash the roe in a bowl with a fork and blend in the shallots, garlic, lemon juice and tomato puree. Add the chives, Tabasco, Worcester sauce and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cream. The sauce will be fairly thick, so add more cream or milk to thin out if preferred.

Top the quails' eggs with a spoonful of the cods' roe sauce and garnish with chives.
