    Chill the serving bowl in the fridge while you prepare this easy dip recipe. It will keep the dip cooler for longer - essential for hot summer days!

  • Process the smoked salmon, cream cheese, lemon juice, chives, spring onions and dill until fairly smooth. (You can use a handheld immersion blender or a food processor with the chopping blade).

  • Season the dip with black pepper to taste.

  • Spoon into a small serving bowl.

  • Best chilled for 15 minutes before serving.




Serving Suggestion:

This tasty, easy dip recipe is delicious with any kind of water biscuit, Melba toast or bread stick, but for a really delicious treat try it with these Parmesan Pita Dippers.

I also like to add a handful of rocket leaves and a handful of mustard cress on the side to give it a peppery tang, a few capers in a little side dish and some lemon slices.
