Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh salmon fillet, skinless
- 1 small cucumber
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Chill the salmon fillet in the freezer for 15 minutes to make it easier to dice.
Once slightly firm, remove salmon from the freezer and cut it into small, even cubes around 0.5 cm in size. Place cubed salmon in a mixing bowl.
Peel and finely dice the cucumber. Add to the bowl with the salmon.
Finely chop the red onion and add it to the salmon mixture.
Roughly chop the capers and add them to the bowl.
Chop the fresh parsley and dill finely and add to the mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and olive oil to create a dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salmon and vegetable mixture.
Season the tartare with salt and freshly ground black pepper, gently mixing all ingredients until well combined.
For best results, cover the mixture and chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the salmon tartare chilled, either on a bed of mixed greens or with crispbread for added texture.
