Cooking Instructions
Step 1
To enhance the flavor of the smoked salmon and remove any potential gaminess, gently season the salmon slices. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, add 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and a dash of black pepper. Gently mix to coat and let it marinate for about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly under cold running water. Gently pat them dry or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces, approximately 5-7 cm in size. This size is perfect for wrapping and eating.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the delicious and refreshing yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of homemade plain yogurt and 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Stir until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped sweet pickled plums (or sweet gherkins/pickles) for a touch of sweetness and tang. Finely chop 1/4 small onion and 1/4 small carrot and add them to the sauce. Mix all ingredients well until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, perhaps with a tiny pinch of salt or sugar.
Step 4
This step is a repeat of step 1, emphasizing the preparation of the lettuce. Ensure the lettuce leaves are torn into large, bite-sized pieces (around 5-7 cm) for the best texture and wrapping experience.
Step 5
Take a prepared lettuce leaf. Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the creamy yogurt sauce over the center. Then, add your desired amount of peanut butter on top of the sauce. You can adjust the amount of peanut butter to your preference.
Step 6
Finally, arrange the marinated smoked salmon slices attractively on top of the peanut butter and sauce. Your delicious Smoked Salmon & Peanut Butter Wraps are now ready! Enjoy the wonderful combination of crisp lettuce, creamy peanut butter, tender salmon, and tangy sauce. A truly delightful and healthy treat!
