Beetroot ravioli with salmon

7 servings

20 minutes

The former chefs of the Strelka bar - a New Zealander and an Englishwoman - have created a dish from the tastes of Russia, where they have been working for many years. They wrap smoked fish with sour cream and dill sprigs in thin leaves of pickled beetroot - despite the familiarity of the products, these dumplings look unexpected.

  • Step 1

    1

    Slice the beetroot into the thinnest (about a millimeter) discs using a mandoline. In a saucepan, pour in all the vinegar, wine, and 75 ml of water, add coriander, bay leaf, sugar, peppercorns, and a pinch of salt. Bring the resulting marinade to a boil while stirring. Pour it over the beetroot, cover with a lid, and immediately, without cooling, place in the refrigerator for at least three hours.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Beetroot: 500 g
    2. Apple cider vinegar: 10 ml
    3. Rice vinegar: 25 ml
    4. White wine: 40 ml
    5. Coriander seeds: 5 g
    6. Bay leaf: 2 pieces
    7. Sugar: 40 g
    8. Black peppercorns: 5 g
    9. Salt:  to taste

    Arrange the most beautiful and large beet disks on a tray - they can slightly overlap. Place the tray in a cool place (this way they can be stored for another day). In the end, you will get very bright, soft, and elastic beet petals.

    Mash hot smoked salmon in a bowl with a fork. Add sour cream, mascarpone, a bit of grated fresh horseradish, and roughly torn dill. Drizzle with lemon juice and mix, continuing to mash with a fork. Taste the filling and season with salt to your liking.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Smoked salmon: 200 g
    2. Sour cream: 40 g
    3. Mascarpone cheese: 40 g
    4. Horseradish: 10 g
    5. Dill: 10 g
    6. Lemon juice: 2 ml
    7. Salt:  to taste

    Place a mound of 8-10 grams of filling in the center of the beet slice. Cover with a second beet slice. Now you will need two cooking rings: one smaller and one larger in diameter. Place the smaller ring on the mound of filling with the non-cutting edge down to shape it. The larger ring should cut the uneven edges of the ravioli with its sharp edge.

    Place the ravioli on a plate and serve, drizzled with avocado oil and garnished with salt flowers, basil sprouts, or other aromatic herbs. To enhance the fish flavor, you can make a vinaigrette from pike caviar - mix it with olive oil, lemon juice, and finely chopped onion, and add it to the ravioli. But this is not mandatory.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Avocado oil: 2 tablespoons
    2. Basil sprouts (microgreens): 15 g
    3. Fleur de sel:  to taste
