Instructions

  1. First, pickle the red onion. To a saucepan, add water, apple cider vinegar, sugar and salt. Simmer, but avoid boiling. Take it off the heat. Slice the onion finely and pour the prepared pickling liquid over it. Leave it to marinate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. 

  2. Drizzle some olive oil over the salmon fillet. Mix the seasoning with cane sugar and spread it over the salmon.

  3. Transfer the salmon to a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for 30 minutes.

  4. Scoop the avocado flesh out into a bowl and mash it using a fork. Add the sour cream. Season the avocado crema with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

  5. Pull the roasted salmon apart using a fork.

  6. Prepare the mini bases and spread the avocado crema over them. Add the pulled salmon, greens, and the pickled onion. Sprinkle it with sesame seeds and chopped coriander.

  7. Enjoy!
