How to prepare Beetroot and Avocado Tartare
To prepare the beetroot and avocado tartare, first squeeze the juice of half a lemon 1 and set it aside. Cut the avocados in half 2, remove the pit, and then scoop out the flesh with a spoon into a bowl 3.
Season with olive oil 4, lemon juice 5, then mash the flesh with a fork 6,
add salt and pepper 7. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in the refrigerator. In a bowl, place the fresh spreadable cheese, the zest of an untreated lemon 8, salt, pepper, thyme leaves, and chives cut with scissors 9.
Drizzle with a dash of oil 10 and mix well to add flavor 11, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the fridge to firm up. Peel the beetroot 12 (we used pre-cooked ones)
Then, cut into cubes and chop further until you get a tartare 13. Place the tartare in a bowl, season with oil 14, salt, and a few drops of Tabasco 15. Mix well and retrieve the other bowls from the fridge.
Place a 2.4 x 2.4 inches square ring on a plate (the dimensions can vary according to your needs), pour a first layer of avocado 16, press and level with the back of a spoon. Proceed with a layer of beetroot tartare 17 and finish with a layer of spreadable cheese cream 18.
Press and level the surface well with the back of a spoon to compact 19. Then, gently remove the ring and garnish the beetroot and avocado tartare with untreated lemon zest 20 and thyme leaves 21!
