These sophisticated tarragon and caper egg salad sandwiches offer a refined twist on a classic lunchtime staple. Combining the creamy texture of mashed eggs with the distinct, aniseed notes of fresh tarragon and the salty punch of chopped capers, this recipe creates a complex flavour profile. The addition of oak-smoked salmon provides an extra layer of luxury, making these rolls feel far more special than your average midday meal.

As a high-protein option, this dish is particularly satisfying and serves as an excellent choice for a nutritious post-workout lunch or a weekend brunch. The peppery watercress adds a fresh crunch that cuts through the rich mayonnaise and oily fish beautifully. For the best results, use high-quality seeded rolls from your local bakery to add a nutty depth and pleasant texture to every bite.
