The method

Step by step

1
Finely chop the red onion and fresh dill. Place them in separate small bowls for assembly.
About 5 min
Cook’s note: Chilling the onion in ice water for 10 minutes before chopping can reduce its harshness.
2
Trim the crusts from the rye bread slices if you prefer, then cut each slice diagonally into four small triangles.
About 2 min
3
Arrange the bread triangles on a baking sheet and toast under a preheated broiler for 1-2 minutes per side, or use a toaster until golden and crisp.
About 5 min
Cook’s note: Watch them closely as they can burn quickly under the broiler.
4
Arrange the cooled toast points on a serving platter.
About 1 min
5
Carefully spoon a small dollop of crème fraîche onto the center of each toast point.
About 1 min
6
Top the crème fraîche with a small spoonful of lumpfish roe.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Gently drain any excess liquid from the roe before spooning it on.
7
Garnish each piece with a sprinkle of the chopped red onion and fresh dill, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
