Instructions
Preparing tomatoes:
Cut off the stem side of the tomatoes. Optionally, you can remove the stem end with a small knife.
Carefully hollow out the tomatoes with a spoon and save the pulp for another dish, e.g. a tomato soup.
Sprinkle the inside of the tomatoes with a little salt and turn them upside down to drain.
Tomato filling:
Mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, pepper and salt in a bowl.
Add the gray shrimp to the mixture and mix gently.
Fill each hollowed-out tomato with the shrimp mixture to the brim.
Presentation:
Divide the mixed lettuce among four plates.
Place a stuffed tomato in the center of each lettuce bed.
Place three half hard-boiled eggs around each tomato.
Add three rolled slices of smoked salmon to each plate.
Serve immediately, with a piece of baguette or toast if desired.

Comments:
Make sure the shrimp are well chilled for best results.
Replace the smoked salmon with smoked trout for a different flavor.
Fresh herbs such as dill or chives can further enrich the flavor.
For a more modern twist, add avocado cubes or guacamole to the filling.
