Bobby Flays Tostones With Salmon Tartar And Relish Recipes

TOSTONES WITH SALMON TARTARE AND AVOCADO-CHIPOTLE RELISH

Steps:

• In small mixing bowl, combine salmon, mustard, capers, scallions, chopped cilantro, olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the chipotles. Mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In medium mixing bowl, combine avocados, lime juice and remaining tablespoon of chipotles. Mash with fork until blended but not quite smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Fold in creme fraiche until mixture has a marbled appearance. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In deep, heavy skillet, heat peanut oil to 325 degrees. Add half of the plantain quarters, and fry without stirring until bottom halves are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn quarters, and fry an additional 2 minutes. Remove, and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining plantains.
• Increase temperature of oil to 375 degrees. Using meat pounder or other heavy object, flatten each plantain slice until 1/8 inch thick. Return tostones to skillet, and fry tostones until golden-brown and crisp, about 1 minute a side. Drain on paper towels, and sprinkle with kosher salt to taste.
• To serve, place each tostone in middle of a small plate, and top with 1 heaping tablespoon of salmon tartare. Top salmon with 1 teaspoon Avocado-Chipotle Relish, and garnish with cilantro leaf. Serve immediately.

• Coat corn on all sides with cooking spray, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill about 15 minutes or until charred on all sides.

BOBBY FLAY'S TOSTONES WITH SALMON TARTAR AND RELISH RECIPE

Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle immediately with salt. Salmon Tartar: Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Avocado-Chipotle Relish: Place avocados, chipotle and lime juice in a medium bowl and mash with a fork until almost smooth, but some texture remains. Add the creme fraiche and fold until almost combined (should have a marbled appearance) and season with salt and pepper to taste. Assemble: Place a heaping tablespoon of salmon tartar in the center of each tostones and top with a teaspoon of avocado-chipotle relish. Garnish with cilantro leaf. Serve immediately.
