Method

Using a fork, shred the smoked trout into small flakes or pieces.

Set aside.

Place the butter and yoghurt in a mixing bowl and hand-whisk until the mixture becomes fluffy (or you can use an electric mixer or food processor).

Add the egg yolk and a little of the lemon juice.

Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil into the mixture and then add the rest of the lemon juice.

Fold in the flaked fish, chives and horseradish.

Season to taste.

Refrigerate until ready to serve.
