Lemon, pepper & tomato toasts with hot smoked salmon

Lemon, pepper & tomato toasts with hot smoked salmon

The savoury and salty anchovies and capers balance the sweet peppers, tomatoes and lemon zest. If you don’t have hot smoked salmon, you can use canned tuna or smoked mackerel instead.

Ingredients

  • 2 sweet peppers, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, skin on
  • 1 rosemary sprig, leaves only
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp nonpareille capers, drained
  • 6 anchovy fillets in olive oil, drained, to taste
  • 400g can peeled Italian vine cherry tomatoes
  • 1 Cooks’ Ingredients Unwaxed Lemon, zest plus wedges, to serve
  • 6 large diagonal slices No.1 Sourdough Baguette (or sliced sourdough)
  • 150g pack Scottish hot smoked salmon slices

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220ºC, gas mark 7. Put the peppers, garlic cloves and rosemary into a medium roasting tin. Toss with the oil and roast for 12 minutes or until beginning to colour.

  2. Stir in the capers and anchovies, roast for 5 minutes, then stir in the tomatoes and roast for 10 minutes more, until reduced and browned at the edges.

  3. Once cooled slightly, squeeze the garlic cloves from their skins and stir through. Grate in most of the lemon zest, stir again, then set aside.

  4. Toast the bread slices under a grill or in a hot griddle pan. Pile the peppers and tomatoes onto the toast and flake over the hot smoked salmon, then crack over some black pepper. Grate or pare the remaining lemon zest over, then serve immediately, with lemon wedges for squeezing over.

Cook’s tip

This is delicious when the vegetables have cooled. Try taking it all along on a picnic, and assemble the toasts when you get there.
