Ingredients
17 ½ oz. of mashed potatoes
3 spoonfuls flour
4 eggs
2 cups cream
salmon cut into 48 two-inch squares
2 oz. caviar
1 lemon
1 ¾ oz. clarified butter
1 tomato, dill

Preparation Instructions
1. To make the batter, make mashed potatoes and combine them with the cream and flour. Add the eggs one after the other and whisk them all together until you get a creamy and even consistency.

2. Slice the salmon into small squares about two inches in length and as thin as sashimi. Carefully spread a spoon of caviar on a piece of salmon and top with another salmon piece so that the caviar is sandwiched between two slices of salmon.

3. In a frying pan, melt the butter and when hot enough, drop the pancake batter shaping it into a small circle about the size of a fist. When the bottom of the pancakes has browned, place the salmon and caviar on the top of the pancake, and flip the pancake to cook the other side.

4. To make the sauce, sauté strips of lemon peel in butter and season with salt.

5. To serve, place some sauce at the center of the plate and arrange three salmon-caviar pancakes on top. Decorate with small pieces of raw salmon and caviar on the side, bits of tomatoes, and sprinkle with fresh dill.
