   Lay some plastic wrap on a cutting board, which will help to form the roll.

    Using an offset spatula (commonly used for frosting cakes), spread a thin layer of the tartar sauce right on the salmon, all the way to the outer edges of the salmon.

    Next, spoon on a layer of the prepared lentils over the tartar sauce layer.
