Ingredients

• 400 grams fresh salmon fillet, skinless and boneless
• 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons capers, drained and finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 whole lemon, juice and zest
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 medium avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced

Directions

Step 1

Start by placing the fresh salmon fillet in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm it up for easy slicing.

Step 2

Once the salmon is slightly firm, remove it from the freezer and cut it into small, even cubes (about 1/4 inch in size) using a sharp knife.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced salmon, finely chopped red onion, chopped capers, dill, and parsley.

Step 4

Zest and juice the lemon, and add both to the salmon mixture, ensuring the tartare is well seasoned with the citrus flavors.

Step 5

Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil and Dijon mustard onto the salmon mixture.

Step 6

Add the sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting the seasoning to your taste.

Step 7

Gently fold in the diced avocado, being careful not to mash it into the mixture.

Step 8

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve the salmon tartare in small bowls or moulded into desired shapes using a ring mold. Garnish with extra dill or parsley if desired.
