Make the pickled onions by combining the water, white wine vinegar, cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper in a small pan. Bring to a simmer over a medium heat, then remove from the heat. Place the sliced red onion in a heatproof bowl or container and pour the hot pickling liquid over the onions. Set aside for an hour to pickle.Step 2
To make the lemon crème fraiche, in a small bowl, combine the crème fraîche, lemon zest, and half of the lemon juice. Season with a pinch of black pepper and set aside.Step 3
Assemble the wreath on a large wooden board or platter, arrange the rocket and baby leaf salad in a wreath shape. Arrange the avocado slices, cucumber ribbons, fennel slices, and radish discs on top of the leaves, alternating between the different elements to create a visually appealing wreath. Use two cucumber ribbons to create a bow shape on the top of the wreath.Step 4
Nestle the pickled onions and bite-sized smoked salmon slices amongst the vegetables. Decorate with dill sprigs. Sprinkle the wreath with salt and pepper, and drizzle with the remaining lemon juice and the chilli oil.Step 5
Serve the salad wreath with the toasted ciabatta or crusty bread and the lemon crème fraîche.
