Pasta fanstastica
Stir smoked roe through al dente pasta, with creme fraiche and chopped parsley. Add fried black pudding for a deeply savoury taste. Or stir through cold pasta with chopped cucumber and a sour cream dressing made with lemon zest and chives for a picnic salad.
Dip it good
Make a classic taramasalata; roe blended with crushed garlic, minced onion, lemon juice and olive oil to taste. Mix roe with cream cheese or creme fraiche for a cheat's pate. You could add avocado, chopped parsley or dill, a dash of sherry, cream or butter and eat with crackers.
Breakfast special
Substitute roe for smoked salmon in a scrambled eggs or omelette recipe parsley. Or fry flour-dredged roe with bacon and a dash of lemon.
