Mille-feuilles With Smoked Salmon Mousse and Le Cabrouet
Ingredients
-
3 sheets of filo dough
-
60 ml (1/4 cup) butter, melted
-
30 ml (1 tbsp.) black sesame seeds
-
150 g (5 oz) Le Cabrouet
-
150 g (5 oz) smoked salmon, diced
-
Zest and juice of 2 limes
-
2 avocados
-
6 fresh cilantro sprigs, finely chopped
-
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
Brush each sheet of filo dough with melted butter. Fold the sheets in half. Cut lengthwise into 4 strips; then, cut each strip in half to obtain 8 rectangles. Place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 5 minutes or until golden brown.
In a bowl, mix the Le Cabrouet with the salmon and the zest and juice of 1 lime. Add salt and pepper.
Purée the avocados. Mix in the zest and juice of the second lime. Add salt and pepper. Then, add the cilantro.
Before serving, assemble the mille-feuilles. Gently spread the smoked salmon mixture onto 4 filo rectangles. Cover with the avocado mixture. Place the remaining 4 filo rectangles on top. Serve immediately for a crisp filo crust.
