Salmon and avocado tramezzini

A few days ago I was showing a friend of mine from varsity some pictures from home and it made me miss the sea and the sand and the sun. One of the things I love most about South Africa is going out to a lovely restaurant and eating a delicious light lunch...like, for example, a tramezzini. A tramezzini is kind of like a big pita bread, filled with many varieties of fillings and grilled until it is crispy. Here in Sweden, we don't get any tramezzinis, so I decided to experiment and make my own. I used a pita bread, filled it with smoked salmon and avocado and fried it in a pan until it was a delicious golden brown...it turned out great! The closest to home I've been for a while;-)

Here's the recipe for 4 people:

4 pita breads
8 tbsp cream cheese
8 slices of smoked salmon
2 ripe avocados
½ red onion, finely chopped
½ lemon
Some fresh dill
Pepper and salt

1. Spread 1 tbsp cream cheese in each pita bread. Put one slice of salmon and a few slices avocado in each.
2. Fry on medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side, until the bread gets golden brown.
3. Put on a plate. Put some more cream cheese and salmon on top of the pita, together with some more avocado, some red onion, lemon and some dill. Season with salt and pepper.

Enjoy!
