Method

  1. Separate the lettuce leaves and put them on a serving board. As they get smaller, you can slightly overlap two leaves to make a bigger cup.
  2. Divide the salmon, grapefruit, avocado and cannellini beans between the lettuce cups.
  3. Whisk together the crème fraîche, lemon juice and olive oil. Spoon the dressing into the lettuce cups, then scatter over the dill and finish with a generous twist of black pepper.

Tip: Blitz leftover smoked salmon and crème fraîche with soft cheese and lemon juice to make a creamy pâté.
