How to do it step by step
- Make the tulips. First, preheat the oven to 180 or . Meanwhile, melt the butter and paint the filo sheets with it. Place 4 molds upside down in an ovenproof dish and cover them with the leaves. Then bake them for about 5 minutes. And then let them temper and unmold them.
- Saute the salmon. Cut the salmon into small cubes, salt and pepper them and sauté them in a pan with a thread of oil for about 3 minutes, and set them aside.
- Prepare the tartar sauce. Clean the chives, wash the parsley and rinse the pickles and capers; chop them and mix everything with the mayonnaise. Finally, add the juice of ½ lemon.
- Fill the tulips. Put 2 tablespoons of tartar sauce in the bottom of each tulip, divide the salmon cubes and cover them with the remaining sauce. And if you want to give them more aroma, sprinkle a little lemon zest and a pinch of pepper on top, and serve.

Cut calories
If you prefer, you can paint the phyllo dough sheets with olive oil instead of butter. And substitute the mayonnaise for the tartar sauce for a skimmed yogurt. This will save you some fat and have an even lighter version.
