• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small  red onion, finely diced

• 2 Tbsp. fried capers

Preparation

1. Add  potatoes to a large pot, cover in  cold water, and season with salt. Bring to a boil, and  reduce heat to simmer until tender, 10–15 minutes. Drain and let cool.
2. In a large bowl mix crème fraîche, lemon zest, juice, and oil . Add potatoes, red onion, and cucumber; toss to coat.
3. Combine garlic seasoning, dried onion, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and sea salt in a small bowl.
4. To serve, layer potatoes with pieces of lox, spice mix, fried capers, and dill on a platter and drizzle with more oil. Season with more sea salt if needed.

TIPS:

 To fry capers: over medium heat in a little neutral oil after straining and patting dry to avoid splatter. Fry until capers have some crisp texture to them and lie on paper towel to soak up oil.
