Tuna Tartar Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together the sriracha, mayonnaise, and lime juice until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tuna

    Dice the sushi-grade tuna into small cubes and place it in a mixing bowl. Finely chop the shallot and add it to the bowl with the tuna.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork and season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tartar

    To assemble, layer the mashed avocado on a serving plate, then top it with the tuna and shallot mixture. Create a small well in the center of the tartar and place the egg yolk there.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle the sriracha aioli over the tartar and serve with tortilla chips on the side.
