Ingredients for six people
For the mint oil
For the mint mayonnaise
For the cucumber dressing

Recipe Procedure for snapper, watermelon, mint and caviar
For the mint oil
Blend mint and oil with a professional blender reaching a temperature of 90 °C, for nine minutes. Then strain through an etamine mesh fabric and let stand overnight. Separate from the vegetation water and use only the green oil.
For the mayonnaise
Blend the eggs, salt, and vinegar with an immersion blender, pouring in the oil in a trickle so that the mayonnaise is smooth and homogeneous.
For the osmosis watermelon
Vacuum-pack 3 × 3-centimeter cubes of watermelon, seasoning with a little extra virgin oil and 50 grams of Alkermes per slice. Place in the refrigerator for at least six to eight hours so that the color and flavor are well concentrated. Alternative preparation without vacuum: in a plastic container with an airtight cap, place a clean slice of watermelon three inches high and cover with Alkermes, then refrigerate for 12 hours. Cut the watermelon into three-centimeter cubes.
After peeling and removing the seeds from the cucumbers, combine the ingredients and with the help of a professional blender (and an ice cube to keep the blades from heating up), blend until smooth and homogeneous.
Prepare the snapper slices with skin on, 70 grams per diner. Cook only on the skin side and season only with salt and oil at the end of cooking.
Plate
Using a teaspoon, create small spheres of mint mayonnaise in one half of the plate. In the other lay the snapper with herring caviar on top. Arrange the watermelon cubes symmetrically with the herring caviar. Finish with some flavored oil and cucumber dressing.
