Preparation steps
1.
Line four timbale moulds with clingfilm. Soak the gelatine in cold water. Wash the parsley, dill and basil, spin dry and pick off and chop the leaves. Drain the gherkins and cut into pieces. Mix the cream cheese with the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Carefully stir in the herbs and chopped gherkin. Warm the milk, squeeze out the gelatine and dissolve in the milk. Stir into the cream cheese mixture. Whip the cream until stiff and fold in. Line the base of each timbale mould with smoked salmon, then add cream cheese to a depth of 2 cm and smooth the top. Add another layer of smoked salmon, cover with the rest of the cream cheese mixture and smooth the top. Cover with foil or clingfilm and put into the refrigerator to set.
2.
Wash and sort the salad leaves and spin dry. For the dressing, mix the vinegar, mustard, salt, sugar and pepper and whisk in the oil. Toss the salad in the dressing. Turn the timbales out onto plates and remove the clingfilm. Scatter the salad leaves around the timbales and garnish the top of each with a couple of small leaves.
