Method

  1. Slice the salmon fillet into smaller portions (visible step).

  2. Separate the salmon skin from the flesh (visible step).

  3. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan and lay the salmon skin side down. Press with a weight until the skin is flat and toast until crisp.

  4. Finely dice the salmon fillet and place it in a bowl.

  5. Add the diced strawberries to the salmon.

  6. Pour soy sauce into a metal mixing bowl (visible step).

  7. Grind seasoning (likely pepper) into the mixing bowl and add lemon zest (visible step).

  8. Stir in the soy sauce mixture, lemon zest, a splash of lemon juice, black pepper, dill, and a pinch of salt.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Lemon and soy coat the salmon and fruit. Fold gently so the diced salmon stays distinct.

  9. Mix well and let the mixture rest for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  10. Toast the bread slices lightly.

  11. Spread softened cream cheese on each slice.

  12. Drizzle chili sauce onto a slice of bread topped with cream cheese (visible step).

  13. Top each toast with a spoonful of the salmon‑strawberry tartare.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Tartare sits on cream cheese toast. Add it just before serving to keep bread crisp.

  14. Add a few drops of chili sauce, sprinkle chopped chives, and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

  15. Serve immediately while the salmon skin remains crisp.
