Ingredients

• 300 grams Fresh sashimi-grade salmon
• 2 tablespoons Shallots
• 1 tablespoon Capers
• 2 tablespoons Chives
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 whole Avocado
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 handful Microgreens
• 12 pieces Crackers or toasted bread slices

Directions

Step 1

Start by finely dicing the sashimi-grade salmon into small, uniform pieces. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Finely mince the shallots and capers, then add them to the bowl with the salmon.

Step 3

Chop the chives finely and add them to the salmon mixture.

Step 4

Add lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, freshly ground black pepper, and salt to the salmon mixture. Gently combine all ingredients, being careful not to over-mix to maintain the salmon's texture.

Step 5

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a separate bowl. Mash lightly with a fork, ensuring it remains chunky.

Step 6

Add lemon zest and Dijon mustard to the mashed avocado and mix gently.

Step 7

Place a serving ring mold on a plate and spoon a portion of the avocado mixture into the base, pressing down gently.

Step 8

Top the avocado layer with a portion of the salmon tartar, pressing down lightly to ensure a firm shape. Carefully remove the ring mold.

Step 9

Garnish each serving with a few microgreens for freshness.

Step 10

Serve immediately with crackers or toasted bread slices on the side for scooping.
