Ingredients
1 pound skinless, boneless yellowtail flounder
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
2 tablespoons finely chopped basil
2 tablespoons hazelnut oil
¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
6 teaspoons fresh caviar for garnish, optional
Buttered toast triangles (see instructions)
Preparation
- Step 1
Rub the fingers down the center line of each fillet. Cut away and discard any remnants of bone.
- Step 2
Put the fillets on a flat surface and chop finely with a knife. Do not use a food processor or blender. You do not want to make a smooth paste. There should be about two cups or slightly less, closely packed.
- Step 3
Put the fish in a mixing bowl and add the chives, basil, oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Blend well.
- Step 4
Serve in small portions, each one garnished with one teaspoon of caviar, if desired. Serve with buttered toast triangles.
