Tuna Tostada Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spicy Aioli

    In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and lime juice. Adjust seasoning to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sear the Tuna

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Season the fresh tuna with salt and black pepper, then sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and slice thinly.

  3. 3

    Fry the Tortillas

    In the same skillet, add more oil if necessary and fry the corn tortillas until crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tostadas

    Spread a layer of spicy aioli on each crispy tortilla. Top with sliced seared tuna, diced avocado, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Finish with crispy fried leeks on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the tortillas are warm and crispy.
