Made this as part of a Greek Mezze for my Friend's birthday lunch. Only used 100g of Philladelphia Cream Cheese & 2 tablespoons of Creme Fraiche and the consistency was great, put in the fridge overnight so the flavours developed. Taste for lemon when adding, as everyone is different, loving or…

Increase the smoked salmon to 150g and reduce the Crème Fraiche to 50g, more tasty and not runny at all. I made this for my Greek mother-in-law who is diabetic, and she loved it (no breadcrumbs or olive oil in the mix like you'd get in the shop bought taramasalata!), perfect.

lovely taste but very runny as said above. I halved the cheese and creme fraiche on second attempt and added dill too. Fabulous!
