Instructions
Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the crème fraîche with lemon zest, lemon juice, half of the dill, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well combined. Add in the arugula, sliced cucumber, and avocado, gently tossing them until coated with the dressing.
Assemble the Wraps: Lay each wrap flat on the cutting board. Evenly distribute the smoked salmon across the center of each wrap. Spoon the dressed greens and vegetables over the salmon. Sprinkle the remaining dill on top for added flavor.
Roll the Wraps: Fold in the sides of each wrap over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom, ensuring the wrap is snug and ingredients are secured inside.
Slice and Serve: Slice each wrap diagonally to create a visually appealing presentation. Arrange on a plate with lemon wedges and garnish with extra dill before serving.

For an added touch of luxury, try adding a sprinkle of roe on top before serving.
This offers a pop of color and a gentle brininess that elevates the dish.
