Method

Preparation of Cucumber

  1. 1

    Slice the Cucumber

    Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Cut off both ends, then slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin strips using a sharp knife or mandoline.

  2. 2

    Remove Seeds

    If the cucumber has many seeds, you may want to scoop them out gently using a spoon to create a better rolling surface.

Preparation of Fillings

  1. 3

    Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture

    In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.

  2. 4

    Slice the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice the flesh into thin strips.

  3. 5

    Chop the Fresh Dill

    Finely chop the fresh dill and set it aside for use in the filling.

Assembly of Cucumber Rolls

  1. 6

    Spread the Filling

    Take one cucumber strip and spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface.

  2. 7

    Add Fillings

    Place a few slices of smoked salmon, avocado, and a sprinkle of chopped dill on top of the cream cheese mixture.

  3. 8

    Roll the Cucumber

    Starting from one end, carefully roll the cucumber strip tightly around the fillings. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.

  4. 9

    Repeat

    Repeat the process for the remaining cucumber strips and fillings.

Serving
