Ingredients
  • 2 6-ounce cans crab meat
  • 1/2 red onoin
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • A handful of fresh dill
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 pound fresh salmon
  • About 4 cups mesclun
  • A drizzle of olive oil
Directions
  1. Place the crab meat in a bowl with the onion, olive oil, dill, and lemon juice. Mix well, season to taste, and set aside.
  2. In another bowl, sprinkle the sesame seeds on the salmon and mix until thoroughly coated.
  3. In another bowl, mash the avocado with a squeeze of lemon. Season to taste, add the scallions, and mash into the avocado.
  4. Place a pastry ring in the center of each plate and spoon in a quarter of the crab mixture, pushing it down well into the mold. Add a layer of avocado and finish with the salmon, pressing everything down so the tower will hold its shape when you remove the pastry ring. Repeat this for each serving.
  5. Serve with a fresh green salad, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
