Ingredients

6 servings

For the pâté

8 oz smoked trout fillets, skin removed and flaked
4 oz cream cheese, softened
3 tbsp crème fraîche
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp prepared horseradish
2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
salt, to taste

For serving

crackers, for serving
lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
fresh dill sprigs, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1
Add the cream cheese and crème fraîche to a food processor and pulse 4–5 times until smooth and combined.
2
Add the flaked smoked trout, lemon juice, lemon zest, horseradish, and black pepper to the food processor. Pulse 6–8 times until the mixture is just combined and slightly textured — stop before it becomes completely smooth, so some flakes of trout remain visible.
