  • Follow the instructions from my focaccia bread (no-knead). Cool.
    Cut the focaccia in half horizontally and lather it up with these delicious flavours.
  • Whip up the kirīmi tīhi (cream cheese) and wai rēmana (lemon juice) to a smooth consistency. Fold through the tote (salt), pepa (pepper), kiri rēmana (lemon zest), dill and hāmana (salmon). 
  • Spread the pani hāmana (salmon spread) on to the bottom of the focaccia.
  • Add the capers, aniana whero (red onion), kukama (cucumber), rētehi (lettuce) and wairanu huamata (mayonnaise)! Add the lid and cut in to pieces. This is best eaten within the same day.
