1
Prepare the Tuna
Start by finely dicing the fresh Ahi tuna into small cubes. Ensure that the tuna is sushi-grade for the best flavor and safety.
2
Prepare the Avocado
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Dice the avocado into small cubes, similar in size to the tuna.
3
Mix the Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tuna and avocado. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and finely chopped green onions. Gently toss to combine, ensuring the avocado does not get mashed.
4
Season the Tartare
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the mixture and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning based on your preference.

5
Plate the Dish
Spoon the tuna tartare mixture onto a plate or into a serving bowl. You can also use a ring mold for a neat presentation.
6
Garnish
Garnish with additional sesame seeds and finely chopped green onion if desired. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or cucumber slices.
