4 tablespoons of infusion

Introduction

A, refreshing and vibrant tartare. With Asian and citrus notes. The scent of lemongrass, the tone slightly spicy of the ginger, citrus lime and a brunoise of courgette to give a crunchy texture.

 

For the dressing prepare an infusion bringing the water to boil together with lemongrass cut into pieces (a few cm.) With a little sugar for approximately 10 minutes. Blanch the brunoise of courgette for 20 seconds in the infusion, pick it with a kitchen spider and cool it in a bowl with ice and water to stop the cooking (al dente / crunchy).
