- Ingredients
- 500 grams Salmon
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 chili pepper
- 1 tsp freshly grated ginger

- 1 Lettuce
- 1 Cucumber
- 1 handful Sprout (e.g., pea and bean sprouts)
- 2 Tbsps lemon juice

Rinse salmon, pat dry and chop. Peel garlic and chop finely. Rinse chile pepper, trim and cut into thin rings. Stir in the garlic, ginger and 1 tablespoon oil and mix in the diced salmon. Cover and let marinate about 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Rinse the lettuce, trim, spin dry and pluck small. Rinse the cucumber, cut ends, cut in half lengthwise and cut into slices. Rinse, blanch and drain the sprouts. Mix the remaining oil with the lemon juice and 2-3 tablespoons water and add salt and sugar to taste. Place the salmon into a heated non-stick pan and sear on all sides 2-3 minutes. Take off the heat and let stand briefly until done. Season with salt. Sprinkle the lettuce with cucumber and sprouts in bowls, drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle with cilantro. Place salmon cubes on top and serve.
