Method
Preparing the Tostada Base
- 1
Fry the Tortillas
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the corn tortillas one at a time. Fry each tortilla for 1-2 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Preparing the Tuna Mixture
- 2
Mix the Tuna
In a mixing bowl, combine the yellow-fin tuna, lime juice, salt, and chopped cilantro. Gently mix with a fork until well combined. Set aside to marinate while preparing the other components.

Blend the Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice, and salt. Mix well until smooth. Adjust salt to taste if necessary.
Preparing the Deep Fried Leeks

Fry the Leeks
In a separate skillet, heat oil (or use the same from the tortillas) to medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced leeks and fry until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Assembling the Tostadas

Build the Tostadas
On each crispy tortilla, spread a generous amount of chipotle mayo. Top with the marinated tuna mixture, a few slices of avocado, and a sprinkle of fried leeks. Serve immediately.
