Tostadas

Tuna Topping

Guacamole

Chipotle Mayonnaise

Method

Tostadas

  1. 1

    Fry the Tortillas

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the corn tortillas one at a time until they are crispy and golden, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Tuna Topping

  1. 2

    Prepare the Tuna

    Dice the sushi-grade tuna and place it in a bowl. Add soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro. Mix gently to combine.

Guacamole

  1. 3

    Make Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the avocados with lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Fold in diced tomato for additional flavor.

Chipotle Mayonnaise

  1. 4

    Make Chipotle Mayonnaise

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced chipotle peppers, and lime juice. Mix well until smooth.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Tostadas

    Spread a layer of guacamole on each crispy tortilla. Top with the tuna mixture and drizzle with chipotle mayonnaise. Serve immediately.
