1
Prepare the Tuna
Using a sharp knife, dice the fresh tuna loin into small, uniform cubes, approximately 1/4 inch in size.
2
Prepare the Avocado
Slice the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into similar-sized cubes as the tuna.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, gently combine the diced tuna and avocado. Drizzle the sesame oil, soy sauce, and lime juice over the mixture and stir gently to coat evenly.
4
Plate the Tartare
Using a ring mold or a small bowl, carefully pack the tuna and avocado mixture into the mold to form a neat tower on a serving plate. Remove the mold carefully.
5
Garnish
Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped chives on top of the tartare. Optionally, add microgreens for a fresh touch.
6
Serve
Serve immediately as an appetizer or light main dish, with additional soy sauce on the side if desired.
