Cucumber, smoked salmon and avocado stacks

Ingredients

serves 4

• 1 cucumber, deseeded and finely chopped
• extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp dill, chopped
• 2 avocados, chopped
• Zest and juice of 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp chives, chopped
• 2 tomatoes, chopped
• 2 tbsp capers, rinsed
• 200g smoked salmon
• 1 tbsp coriander, chopped
• Fine sea salt, to taste
• Black pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Toss the cucumber with 1 tsp olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 1 tbsp dill.
2. In a separate bowl, gently fold the avocado with half of the lemon juice, 1 tbsp chives and season.
3. To make the dressing, whisk 2 tbsp olive oil, tomatoes, capers, the remaining lemon juice and the zest with some seasoning.
4. Spoon ¼ of the cucumber mix onto a plate in a metal ring approximately 8cm, and fill in the circle, making a layer of cucumber. Top with ¼ of the avocado mix, and spread evenly to the sides of the ring. Add a layer of smoked salmon, covering all the avocado, then lift off the ring to leave a three tiered stack. Repeat with the remaining mix on 3 more plates. Spoon over the dressing and add the coriander to serve.
