Step 1: Prepare the Lemon Spread — Mix cream cheese with lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Step 2: Toast the Bread — Slice the Italian bread into thick pieces. Drizzle with olive oil and toast in a pan or oven at 200°C for 5–6 minutes until golden and crispy.
Step 3: Rub with Garlic — While the bread is still warm, rub each slice lightly with a cut garlic clove for extra flavour.
Step 4: Spread & Top — Spread the lemon cream cheese generously over each toasted slice. Lay the smoked salmon on top and add the green olives.
Step 5: Finishing — Garnish with fresh dill, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, and a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately.
