Instructions
- Cut 12 rounds of the cucumber - for the salmon rolls to sit on when serving. With the remaining cucumber, cut it into 8 thin strips and remove the seeds.
- In a small bowl, mix together the tzatziki, 1 teaspoon of the minced chives, and the lime juice. See note 1.
- Lay a piece of plastic wrap (about 16 inches long) on your table. Place the smoked salmon on top of the plastic, overlapping the pieces to make a 12" x 7" rectangle. Pat them down gently so they stick together.
- Spread the tzatziki over the salmon. Lay the avocado slices down the center of the salmon, top with the cucumber strips, and sprinkle the remaining chives over the top.
- Using the plastic to help you, roll the salmon tightly then sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top.
- Put the salmon rolls into your refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to make slicing it easier.
- Slice the salmon roll into 12 pieces, place them on cucumber slices, and top with 2 small chives on each.
Notes
- Note 1: I like to use Summer Fresh Extra Thick Tzatziki. Because it's extra thick, it works really well in this recipe. If the tzatziki you have is thinner, mix a little cream cheese into it to thicken it up.
- Note 2: You can make these up to 4 hours before a party and slice them just before serving.
- Note 3: These salmon rolls are nice served on crunchy rice crackers, too!
