Step by step
Get ahead
The pâté keeps in the fridge for 1 day.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6. Put the salmon on a baking tray, drizzle with the oil and a teaspoon of the lemon juice, and season lightly. Bake for 10-12 minutes until cooked through and starting to flake. Remove and leave to cool.
- Chop the smoked salmon roughly and place in a bowl.
- Flake the cooked salmon into the bowl using your fingers, discarding the skin.
- Mix the yogurt, 1 tablespoon of chopped dill and the lemon zest through the salmon mix. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Season to taste. Scoop into a serving bowl. Scatter with the capers and remaining dill.

Chill for at least 2 hours, but remove from the fridge 30 minutes before serving with the preserved lemon salsa, if you like.TipServe with Alex's preserved lemon salsa for a lovely contrast
