Cold-smoked reindeer and chive crisps
Ricotta whipped with minced cold-smoked reindeer, chives and lemon zest, spooned onto rice crackers with a slice of radish on top.
Instructions
Mix the ricotta with the minced cold-smoked reindeer, chives, lemon zest, black pepper and salt.
Beat it until everything is evenly through the cheese. You can make this a day ahead and keep it covered in the fridge.
Fill the crackers just before serving, with a small spoon or a piping bag, so they stay crisp.
Arrange them on a platter and finish each one with a thin slice of radish and a few more herbs.
Tips
- A pinch of smoked paprika in the filling gives it more depth.
- Small pita chips or mini rye crisps work just as well as a base.
