Ingredients
- 4 slices white sandwich bread
- 8 slices (about 200 g) smoked salmon
- 8 slices (about 150 g) mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp chives, chopped
- 4 tbsp (80 g) butter, softened
- 20 g salmon roe (optional)
Wine pairing: Champagne Thiénot x Penfolds Cuvée, Champagne, France

Instructions
1. Lay the four slices of bread on the bench and butter one side of each. Turn over, and layer two slices of the bread with two pieces of salmon followed by two pieces of mozzarella. Sprinkle with chives then repeat with the remaining salmon and mozzarella. Top with the remaining bread slice, with butter facing outward.
2. Heat a large frypan over medium heat, add sandwiches and toast on both sides until nicely brown and cheese is beginning to melt, around 5-6 minutes.
3. To serve, cut into quarters and top each quarter with a little salmon roe.
