Tuna Tartare

Method

Preparation of Tuna Tartare

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    Finely dice the sushi grade tuna into small cubes, about 1/4 inch in size. Place the diced tuna in a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Flavorings

    To the bowl with tuna, add soy sauce, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Gently fold the mixture using a spatula to combine all ingredients. Be careful not to mash the tuna.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out of the skin. Dice the avocado into similar-sized cubes as the tuna.

  4. 4

    Combine Tuna and Avocado

    Gently fold the diced avocado into the tuna mixture. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and gently mix to combine.

Preparation of Wasabi Mayo

  1. 5

    Mix the Wasabi Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and lime juice. Stir until smooth and well combined. Taste and add salt as needed.

Assembly and Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Using a ring mold, carefully layer the tuna tartare mixture on a serving plate. Press down gently to shape it.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Drizzle the wasabi mayo around the plate and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with extra sesame seeds or sliced green onions.
