Fresh anchovy fillets with avocado
Ingredients
- 16 fresh anchovies
- 2 avocados, not too ripe
- 15 cl olive oil
- ½ lemon
- 100 g coarse salt
- 10 g sugar
- 2 sprigs dill
- 1 pinch ginger powder
- 100 g mixed greens
- 1 tbsp fennel seeds
Direction
Peel the avocados and cut them in eight, from top to bottom. Cook them in a saucepan with boiling salted water, for 1 minute. Have your fishmonger fillet the anchovies. Let them marinate for 4 to 5 minutes in 100 g salt and 10 g sugar, then wash carefully under a trickle of water. Soak for 5 minutes in a lemon and olive oil vinaigrette with a dash of ginger powder.
How to serve
Elegantly arrange on plates: first the mixed greens, then the avocados. Top with the anchovy fillets, sprinkled with a few fennel seeds and fronds of dill, drizzle the rest of the lemony oil marinade over all the ingredients.
