Directions
Step 1
Ensure your salmon belly is sushi-grade; it's important for safety and quality.
Step 2
Place the salmon belly on a clean cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice the salmon into thin, even sashimi pieces. Aim for slices that are approximately 1/4 inch thick.

In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice until well blended.

Drizzle the olive oil mixture evenly over the salmon slices, ensuring each piece gets a nice coating.
Step 6
Sprinkle the capers over the sashimi, distributing them evenly.
Step 7
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and scatter them around the salmon. You can let a few sit on top of the sashimi for added visual appeal.
Step 8
Slice the black olives into rings and distribute them on the platter.
Step 9
Tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces and sprinkle them over the sashimi.
Step 10
Season everything with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 11
