📝 Ingredients

• 120 g very fresh salmon (sashimi grade)
• ½ ripe avocado
• ½ mango or 4 cherry tomatoes
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• ½ lime (juice + zest)
• ½ tsp freshly grated ginger
• 1 spring onion, chopped

• Crackers or rye toast to serve

🍴 Utensils

📖 Steps

1. Cut the salmon into small 5 mm dice with a very sharp knife. Never mince or crush it — the dice should be clean-cut.
2. Season the salmon: soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, ginger, spring onion. Mix gently. Chill for 10 min.
3. Dice the avocado to a similar size. Season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime.
4. Cut the mango or cherry tomatoes into small dice.
5. Taste the salmon tartare and adjust the seasoning — it should be bright and fragrant.
6. Plate using a ring if you have one: avocado as the base, salmon on top, mango around it.
7. Finish with lime zest, coriander and a drizzle of sesame oil. Serve immediately with crackers or toast.
