Steps to make the Zucchini Omelette Roll with Salmon and Philadelphia
Rinse the zucchini, trim the ends and grate them with a coarse grater straight into a bowl.
Salt, mix and let sit for ten minutes, then gather them in a kitchen towel and squeeze very well to remove the excess water.
Put the zucchini back into a bowl, add the eggs and grated cheese, and mix well.
Pour the mixture into a rectangular baking pan (approx. 13 3/4 × 15 3/4 in) lined with parchment paper, spread it very evenly and bake for 8–10 minutes in a fan-assisted oven at 356°F.
Remove from the oven, immediately cover with another sheet of parchment paper to slow down evaporation and allow to cool.
When the roll is cold, spread the cream cheese on top and add a little grated lemon zest.
Add the salmon, sliced avocado, tomato and a few drops of lemon juice, then using the same parchment paper roll the omelette up from the long side to form a cylinder. Wrap the cylinder in parchment paper and then in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
After chilling, serve after slicing into rounds.
The roll keeps in the refrigerator for 24 hours, covered with plastic wrap.
