Tuna Tartare

Avocado

Sesame Chips

Method

Tuna Tartare Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Tuna

    Finely dice the sushi-grade tuna into small cubes and place it in a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha sauce, chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, and lime juice to the bowl with tuna. Gently mix until combined.

Avocado Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

  2. 4

    Season Avocado

    Add lime juice and salt to the avocado and mash gently with a fork until creamy but still chunky.

Sesame Chips Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare Chips

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat.

  2. 6

    Fry Rice Paper

    Cut rice paper into desired chip shapes. Once the oil is hot, fry the rice paper pieces one or two at a time until they puff and turn golden brown, about 15-20 seconds per side.

  3. 7

    Add Sesame Seeds

    Immediately sprinkle sesame seeds on the chips while they are still hot. Drain on paper towels and let cool.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, spoon the tuna tartare mixture in the center, place a generous dollop of mashed avocado beside it, and arrange sesame chips around the edges.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side if desired.
