Servings: persons

1 lb cooked peeled shrimp
1/2 red onion, peeled and very finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh dill, very finely chopped
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, zest and juice
4 tablespoons sour cream
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 loaf soft white bread (or brioche)
1 ounce butter, diced
fish roe, to serve (optional)

1
Put the shrimp into a bowl with the finely chopped onion, most of the dill, the extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest and juice and soured cream. Season with a couple of good pinches of salt and pepper and gently mix together. Have a taste and check that you've got the right balance of acidity and salt, then put to one side.
2
Put a large frying pan on a high heat. Cut four thick slices of brioche or bread and put them into the hot pan, dropping the cubes of butter in and around the bread so it can soak inches Turn the heat down to medium and continue to cook until the slices are toasted on both sides. Put a slice on each plate and spoon over your shrimp.
3
If you've got some good fish roe, add a little spoonful of that on top, then sprinkle over the rest of your dill and serve right away.
