There couldn’t be anything simpler about this festive cocktail snack, in which potato chips are topped with lemon zest-infused crème fraîche and salmon roe. This dish is more about shopping than cooking. You need to get the salmon roe, available at fishmongers and specialty markets, and some good, small-batch potato chips. But once you have those, it’s a snap to assemble. Do so at the last minute so the chips stay nice and crisp.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup crème fraîche or sour cream
  • ¾ teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 4 ounces Salmon roe or other caviar
  • Potato chips

    8 to 12 servings

    Preparation

    1. In a small bowl, whisk together crème fraîche and zest. Top each potato chip with a small dollop of crème fraîche and a spoonful of caviar.
