Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Salad

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salad Greens

    Wash and dry the mixed salad greens. Tear larger leaves into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Slice the Cucumber

    Peel the cucumber and slice it into thin rounds. Add the cucumber slices to the salad bowl.

  3. 3

    Halve the Cherry Tomatoes

    Rinse the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half. Add them to the salad bowl with the other vegetables.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Slice the avocado into thin strips and add them to the salad.

  5. 5

    Chop the Green Onions

    Chop the green onions finely, both the green and white parts. Sprinkle them over the salad.

  6. 6

    Add Sesame Seeds

    Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the salad for added crunch and flavor.

Cooking the Tuna

  1. 7

    Prepare the Tuna

    Pat the tuna steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  2. 8

    Grate Fresh Ginger

    Grate the fresh ginger using a microplane or fine grater. Set aside.

  3. 9

    Sear the Tuna

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil if desired, then place the tuna steaks in the skillet. Sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on the thickness of the steaks.

  4. 10

    Add Ginger

    During the last minute of cooking, sprinkle the grated ginger over the tuna steaks to infuse flavor. Remove from heat.

  5. 11

    Slice the Tuna

    Allow the tuna to rest for a minute before slicing it into thin strips.
