Spicy Salmon Crostini with Lemon Yogurt

Ingredients

• 200 grams salmon fillet
• 1 piece baguette
• 100 grams Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon chili flakes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 piece garlic clove
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking instructions

1. Prepare the salmon — Cut the salmon fillet into small bite-size pieces and season with salt, black pepper, and chili flakes.
2. Cook the salmon — Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add salmon pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through but still tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Prepare the lemon yogurt sauce — In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, finely chopped fresh dill, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and refrigerate until use.
4. Toast the baguette slices — Slice the baguette thinly. Brush each slice with the remaining olive oil and rub with a cut garlic clove. Toast slices in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for about 5-7 minutes until golden and crisp.
5. Assemble the crostini — Spread a thin layer of the lemon yogurt sauce on each toasted baguette slice, top with pan-seared salmon pieces, and garnish with a small sprig of dill or a light sprinkle of chili flakes for extra heat if desired.
