Smoked Salmon Crostini with Pickled Radish and Capers

METHOD

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Arrange bread, in a single layer, on tray. Spray both sides of bread with oil. Bake for 15 minutes, turning halfway, or until just golden. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Rub 1 side of each bread slice with cut side of garlic. Set aside to cool completely.

Step 2

Meanwhile, stir vinegar, sugar, salt and 1/4 cup boiling water in a medium non-metallic bowl until sugar has dissolved. Add radish, then stir to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes, then drain. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in dill and capers.

Step 3

Combine crème fraîche and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season with pepper. Spread each bread slice with a little of the crème fraîche mixture. Top with a piece of salmon and a little of the radish mixture. Sprinkle with extra dill and serve with lemon wedges.
