1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced

Whitefish Salad
250g smoked white fish (like tuna, kingfish or hot smoked salmon or trout is good too)
2 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp sour cream
1 tbsp capers
Juice and zest 1 lemon
Tobasco, to taste
Pickled Onion
½ red onion, very finely sliced
1 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar
¼ cup cider vinegar
Method
For the pickled onions, place the sliced onion in a bowl with vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt. Squash with your fingers and let macerate. Put aside.
For the tostadas, heat oil in a frypan over a medium-high heat and in batches fry the tortillas until crisp. Drain on paper towel.
Flake the white fish in a bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Using a fork whip together until spreadable. Season with salt and pepper.
Spread on to the crispy tostadas and garnish with avocado, celery, pickled onion, parsley and dill.
