Ingredients
Method
Mix the Norwegian salmon with all the remaining ingredients for the tartare and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes. Check and adjust the seasoning.
Mix all the salsa ingredients together and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes. Drain any excess liquid and check the seasoning.
Purée the avocado with the mayonnaise and crème fraîche. Season with salt and lemon juice. If making in larger quantities, a little Sosa anti-oxidant will help to retain the colour.
To serve, divide the tartare between 4 stainless steel rings, press down to level the surface, then gently lift off the rings. Quenelle the avocado cream on to the tartare and add salsa to the plates. Finish the dish with slices of ripe avocado and the salad leaves.
