Classic Swedish Toast Skagen

From About.com, this is a classic Swedish recipe. First introduced in 1958, Toast Skagen is now served at many restaurants across the country. It's a recipe that lends itself to experimentation - try adding minced onion or grated horseradish to taste (some recipes even add a dash of chili sauce), or substitute baked potatoes or avocados for the fried toast points.

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 6  slices  of good  bread, preferably homemade
• 2  tablespoons butter
• 1  lb  cooked shrimp, baby-sized peeled and chilled
• 3  tablespoons mayonnaise, chilled
• 3  tablespoons sour cream, chilled or 3  tablespoons  cream, frache chilled
• 1  teaspoon fresh dill, finely chopped
• 6  ounces  salmon roe or 6  ounces  lump  fish roe
•  lemon slices and additional dill (to garnish)

Directions

1. Cut the crusts from the bread. Spread butter of both sides and fry the toast in a skillet over medium heat (or better yet, over a backyard grill) until toasted, flipping once. Remove from the pan and cut each piece in half diagonally.
2. Gently fold together the baby shrimp, mayonnaise, sour cream, and chopped dill; spoon the mixture on the toast points.
3. Top each toast with a teaspoon of salmon roe. Garnish with lemon slices and additional dill and serve.
