Combining different dishes into a new one is so much fun and a great way to reinvent dishes. One of my favorites is to turn my favorite dishes into tartares. I think they look so pretty and elegant, your guest will be impressed by the presentation and how professional they look, when they’re in fact silly easy and quick to make. This is a salmon and avocado poké tartare made with brown rice as the base followed by creamy avocado and a flavorful yet delicate and fresh salmon layer. It is topped with crunchy and slightly peppery rashes and a sweet and flavorful wakame salad on top. This dish is both easy and quick to make, only requiring you to cook the rice which can be done in advance. Serve this dish as a starter (by making smaller ones), main dish or include it in a sharing/small dish dinner. This salmon and avocado tartare is gluten free and low in oil.

A few tips:

  • The rice can be cooked in advance and then served at room temperature, it does not have to be warm. I actually prefer it cooled over warm.
  • You can make 2 larger tartares or 3-4 smaller ones depending on how and for which purpose you serve it.
  • I use a round steel mold to assembly the tartares, but you can also make it in a bowl, then turn it upside down and top with the radish and wakame. Just make sure to assembly the tartare the other way around, staring with the salmon in that case.
  • You can adjust the amount of ginger depending on how spicy you prefer your salmon. You can also add some chili if you prefer it even hotter.
  • The salmon can be prepared about 1 hour in advance and stored in the fridge.
  • I would not recommend you to prepare the avocado until just before serving.
  • The ponzu can be swapped for soy sauce/tamari, but the taste will be slightly different.
