Instructions

  1. Grease and line a 20cm springform cake pan with cling wrap, leaving plenty overhanging the sides.
  2. For the crepes, combine flour, milk, eggs and butter in a food processor, season with salt and pepper, then process until smooth. Strain into a jug, then stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, roughly chop 150g smoked salmon and set aside. Place the remaining salmon in the cleaned processor with the cheese, milk, chives, capers, lemon zest and juice.
  4. Process until smooth, then transfer to a bowl and fold through the chopped salmon.
  5. Spray a 20cm crepe pan with olive oil spray and place over medium heat.
  6. Pour in enough batter just to coat the base of the pan (about 1/4 cup or 60ml), returning any excess to the jug. Cook for 1-2 minutes each side until light golden, stacking crepes between sheets of baking paper as you go, to make about 25 crepes. Allow to cool.
  7. To assemble the cake, layer the pancakes in the pan, spreading each with a thin layer of the filling and finishing with a crepe. Fold in the overhanging wrap to cover, then press down gently. Chill overnight to set.
  8. When ready to serve, transfer the cake to a serving platter, then cut into thin slices and serve with lemon wedges and a green salad
