Method

Preparation of Tuna

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    Using a sharp knife, slice the fresh tuna steak into 1-inch thick pieces. Set aside.

Marinade

  1. 2

    Mix the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine the Aji Amarillo paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

  2. 3

    Marinate the Tuna

    Place the sliced tuna in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the tuna. Ensure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Charred Onion

  1. 4

    Char the Onion

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and place the sliced onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is charred and softened. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assembly

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the marinated tuna slices alongside the charred onions and sliced Persian cucumbers. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish.
