Salmon tiradito is a light and refreshing dish that is perfect for hot summer days and has its origins in Peruvian cuisine. It is similar to ceviche, but differs in the way it is presented and the ingredients of the sauce. This version combines the delicate, buttery flavour of raw salmon with the exotic sweetness of mango and passion fruit and a hint of lime and jalapeno heat. Ideal as a starter or light main course, this dish impresses with its freshness and harmonious combination of flavours.
Preparation
- Skin the salmon fillets, cut into slices and arrange on a plate. Then chill the plate in the fridge while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Peel the mango and roughly dice the flesh. Halve two passion fruits and scoop out the flesh. Strain the flesh through a fine sieve to remove the seeds. Peel the ginger and grate finely.
- Place the mango, sieved passion fruit pulp and grated ginger in a blender along with the juice of two limes and a pinch of salt and puree until smooth. Season to taste and add more salt if necessary.
- Put the finely diced cucumber in a bowl. Add a little lime juice and lime zest, lightly salt and mix everything well. Set aside.
- Wash the jalapenos and cut into thin rings.
- Take the prepared salmon slices out of the refrigerator and arrange them on a large plate.
- Pour the mango-passion fruit sauce around the salmon on the plate. Distribute the marinated cucumber cubes on the salmon.
- Sprinkle the jalapeno rings over the salmon as desired. Drizzle the flesh of the third passion fruit over the entire plate.
Tip: This recipe also works great with sashimi-quality tuna. When buying passion fruit, make sure it is nice and wrinkled. The more wrinkled the skin, the more flavorful the fruit. Our HONEST CATCH Sauvignon Blanc goes perfectly with this.
