1 - Prepare the gambas mousseline: shell the gambas and mix with the egg whites and cream in a blender (or Thermomix if you have one). Add salt, pepper and chopped dill to taste. Steam for 20 min at 98°C. Leave to cool for 24 hours. Steam for 5 min before serving.

2 - Prepare the beets: blend the red beets with the squid ink in a blender (or Thermomix) and season.

6 - Presentation: place the gambas mousseline on the plate, the beet point with squid ink, the squid breast sprinkled with grated lime, the chard set nicely and the filtered beurre blanc.
