  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Thinly slice the fresh tuna into sashimi-style pieces. Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts.

    Julienne the cucumber and thinly slice the red onion. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Basil Sauce

    In a small bowl, finely chop the basil leaves and mix them with a bit of ponzu sauce to create a basil-infused ponzu sauce.

  4. 4

    Plate the Sashimi

    On a serving plate, arrange the tuna slices. Add the julienned cucumber and sliced red onion around the tuna.

  5. 5

    Drizzle and Serve

    Drizzle the basil ponzu sauce over the tuna and vegetables. Serve immediately with extra ponzu sauce on the side if desired.
