Ingredients

  • 200g smoked snoek, skinned,
    flaked & deboned
    2ml smoked paprika seasoning
    1 medium brown onion, chopped
    black pepper & salt to taste
    125ml softened butter
    10ml olive oil
    100ml NOLA Ultra Creamy
    FOR THE APPLE PESTO:
    50ml basil pesto
    1 granny smith apple
    FOR THE SCONES:
    60g self-raising flour
    pinch ground cayenne pepper
    pinch ground turmeric
    1 tsp chopped coriander
    15g chilled unsalted butter, cubed,
    plus extra to serve
    2 spring onions, finely chopped
    50ml milk, plus extra to brush

Directions

  • In a pan, heat the olive oil and fry the onions
    until soft, then add the flaked snoek and mix well
    to combine thoroughly.
    In a mixing bowl, whisk the butter until creamy,
    add spices and NOLA Ultra Creamy, and beat until
    mixed.
    In a food processor, mix snoek and butter mixture
    until smooth. Chill until semi-firm.
    PESTO:
    Core, peel and cut the apple into small cubes and
    mix with the basil pesto.
    SCONES:
    Preheat the oven to 180°C.
    Grease and flour a baking tray.
    Sift the flour into a large bowl, add the spices and
    rub the butter with your fingertips into the flour
    until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
    Stir in spring onion, coriander and season well with
    salt and pepper. Add the milk, cutting it into the dry
    mixture with a knife until just combined – do not
    over mix.
    Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Knead
    gently until smooth (not too much).
    Pat dough flat and cut into 5cm rounds. Place
    scones on a prepared baking tray and brush with
    extra milk.
    Bake for about 10 minutes.
    Cut in halves, apply the mousse and serve.
