Read the recipe

INGREDIENTS (2 SERVINGS)

300 g fish farce (fish paste)
50 g butter
2 tbsp flour
Approx. 5 dl milk
3 handfuls fresh spinach
1 bunch green asparagus
½ grated onion
Salt and pepper
4 sheets puff pastry
200 g hand-peeled shrimps
1 bunch dill
1 dl peas
Juice of 1 lemon
Cress for garnish

TARTLET SHELLS

You can either buy ready-made tartlet shells, or try this easy version. Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan). Place the puff pastry sheets on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake until golden and puffed. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, make a hole in the middle with a spoon—or simply with your fingers.

FILLING

Bring plenty of water to a medium-sized pot. Transfer the fish paste to a piping bag. When the water boils, cut off the end of the piping bag and pipe small “dumplings” of fish paste into the water (use a small knife if needed to help release them).
When the fish balls float to the surface, they’re done. Drain the water and set the fish balls aside.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the flour. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually add the milk, whisking as you go. You may not need all the milk—the sauce should be thick and creamy, not thin.

Once the sauce has the right consistency, add the fresh spinach, asparagus cut into bite-sized pieces, and the grated onion. Season with salt and pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for 10–15 minutes.

Just before serving, add the peas, fish balls, juice of ½ lemon, chopped dill, and the hand-peeled shrimps. Fill the puff pastry shells with the warm mixture and garnish with fresh cress on top. Serve immediately.

TACOS WITH FRESH SHRIMP SALAD

This version of tacos features small, homemade, soft tortillas filled with fresh shrimp salad, spicy chili dressing, and creamy guacamole. A refreshing and flavorful combination.

Read the recipe

SOFT TACOS (12 PCS)

  • 300 g wheat flour

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 2 dl lukewarm water

  • 50 g soft butter

Crumble the butter into the flour and mix in the salt. Add the water little by little. Once the dough comes together, place it on the work surface and knead well. Shape into 12 small balls. Roll them out into very thin, round tacos. Fry on high heat in a dry pan for about 1 minute on each side. Stack them on top of each other and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft.

SHRIMP SALAD

  • 200 g hand-peeled shrimps

  • ½ mango

  • 1 red bell pepper

  • ½ red onion

  • 2 spring onions

  • 1 large tomato

Cut the mango, bell pepper, spring onions, tomato, and red onion into small cubes. Quickly rinse the shrimps in cold water and place them on kitchen paper. Mix everything together.

CHILI MAYO

  • 2 dl mayonnaise

  • 1 dl Sriracha Mayo (available in most supermarkets)

  • 1 garlic clove

  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds

  • Salt to taste

Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan without oil until golden. Remove from the heat. Mix mayonnaise, Sriracha Mayo, and sesame seeds in a bowl. Press in the garlic, stir well, and season with a little salt. Chill until serving.

GUACAMOLE

  • 1 avocado

  • ½ red onion

  • 1 tomato

  • 1 garlic clove

  • Lime juice

  • Salt and pepper

Finely chop the red onion. Halve the tomato, remove juice and seeds, then dice finely. Chop the garlic. Halve the avocado and remove the stone. Mash the avocado in a bowl and fold in the other ingredients. Add lime juice and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.

SERVING

Before serving, Laura drizzles a little lime juice over her tacos and tops them with:

  • Finely shredded pointed cabbage

  • Crème fraîche

  • Chili dressing

  • Finely sliced spring onions

  • Cashew nuts

DELICIOUS BLINIS WITH SHRIMPS AND HERBS

Blinis are the perfect snack or starter—and endlessly adaptable. Here they’re topped with a fresh shrimp salad with herbs and green asparagus. The small pancake-like blinis are perfect for freezing and quickly reheating when guests arrive.

Read the recipe

BLINIS (12 PCS)

  • 100 g wheat flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • A pinch of salt

  • 2 eggs

  • ½ l milk

  • Butter for frying

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk in the eggs, then gradually whisk in the milk. Heat a pan with a good knob of butter and fry small blinis. Use a tablespoon to drop small portions of batter onto the pan and shape them into round blinis right away.

SHRIMP SALAD

  • 2 dl crème fraîche (18%)

  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise

  • 200 g hand-peeled shrimps

  • 1 bunch green asparagus

  • 1 bunch dill

  • 1 bunch chives

  • 2 spring onions

  • Juice of ½ lemon

  • ½ red onion

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the green asparagus and cook for 1–2 minutes. Rinse under cold water and let cool. Cut into small pieces. Slice the spring onions finely. Chop the chives and dill. Rinse the shrimps briefly in cold water and let them drain. Mix crème fraîche and mayonnaise together, then stir in the asparagus, dill, chives, and spring onions. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Fold in the shrimps just before serving, as they can otherwise make the cream slightly watery.

Serve the small blinis with a generous spoonful of shrimp salad, a little finely chopped red onion, a few shrimps, and a sprig of dill. Enjoy!

CLASSIC TARTLETS WITH SHRIMP FILLING

Refreshing a classic Danish dish can be challenging—but this one succeeds. The filling uses hand-peeled shrimps instead of chicken, paired with white asparagus, fresh dill, and lemon. A flavorful combination that elevates the dish.

Now add the shrimps, asparagus, and dill. Stir gently and season with salt and pepper. Warm the tartlet shells in the oven and fill them with the hot shrimp mixture. Serve immediately.
