Ingredients
- ¼ lb salmon very fresh, sushi grade
- 2 tablespoon shallot 2tbsp is roughly 1 small shallot
- ½ tablespoon chives
- ½ tablespoon capers in brine, drained
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice approximately
- salt and pepper
- chives to garnish optional
Instructions
- Remove the skin, any bones and fatty pieces and the grey flesh between the pink and the skin from the salmon. Finely slice and then finely dice the salmon.
- Finely dice the shallot and cut the chives in small slices.
- Roughly chop the capers and add them, along with the chives, mustard, onion, lemon and a little salt and pepper to the salmon. Mix all together well. The mixture is best chilled at this point for around 20-30 minutes, so cover and put in the fridge. You can, however, also serve straight away.
- When ready to serve, use a plating mould or just a medium-large cookie/scone cutter or crumpet ring and press into the mould. Carefully remove the mould so it stands in a short cylinder. You could also fill a small, shallow bowl/dish then turn it over on to a plate. Serve immediately, garnished with chives.

Notes
Shallot is generally the best option here but you can also use red onion and sweet onion also works.
