Ingredients

• 300 grams fresh salmon fillet
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and chopped
• 1 small shallot, finely chopped
• 0.5 medium cucumber, diced
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 medium ripe avocado, diced
• 3 small radish, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup microgreens, for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Place the fresh salmon fillet in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to firm up for easier slicing.

Step 2

Once firm, finely dice the salmon into small cubes, approximately 1/4 inch, and place it in a mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add fresh lemon juice and Dijon mustard to the salmon and gently mix to combine.

Step 4

Rinse and chop the capers, finely dice the shallot, and add both to the salmon mixture.

Step 5

Dice the cucumber and add it to the mixture, followed by chopped fresh dill.

Step 6

Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the mixture and season with ground black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Fold in the diced avocado carefully to avoid mashing it, maintaining the texture.

Step 8

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

Step 9

To serve, use a ring mold to shape portions of the tartare on plates, pressing gently to hold the form.

Step 10

Garnish with thin slices of radish and a handful of microgreens.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing, savory flavors with lower sodium content.
