Char Tartare
- 8 ounces (225 g) skinned arctic char fillet (steel head trout would also do)
- 1/2 lemon
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 1 French shallot, finely diced
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon grape seed oil
- Fresh horseradish for serving
- Rinse the fish and pat dry.
- With your sharpest knife, remove the brown flesh on the skinned side, not too much, just a little.
- Cut the fish into 1/4-inch (6-mm) cubes, transferring the pieces to a cool bowl as you go.
- Add about 1 teaspoon lemon juice, the chives, shallot, and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper and stir.
- Taste and rectify if need be, then mix in the oil.
- Serve within 15 minutes.
- Shave horseradish to order.
