I love making tuna tartare. It is so easy, quick and full of flavor. This one takes a bit longer just because I wanted to serve it with some sushi rice, otherwise it would just take 5 minutes to make.
This recipe serves 2.
Ingredients:
200gr of fresh tuna, diced
For the dressing:
2 tablespoons of soy sauce
½ teaspoon of wasabi paste
1 tablespoon of freeze dried yuzu
1 tablespoon of white sesame seeds
For the avocado:
1 avocado, diced
Juice of ½ a lime
1 tablespoon of olive oil
Salt
For the wasabi mayo:
2 tablespoons of mayo
½ teaspoon of wasabi paste
Extras:
2 nori sheets, cut into rounds the same size as the mold that you are using to serve the tartare.
½ cup of sushi rice, already cooked and seasoned.
Decoration:
Red shiso
Chives, chopped
For the dressing, just mix all of the ingredients in a bowl. Do the same for the wasabi mayo.
Mix the diced avocado with the lime juice, olive oil and salt. Mix the tuna with the dressing.
To plate it, you will need a circular mold. Place the nori sheet at the bottom; add the sushi rice pressing firmly so it sticks to the nori. Then add a layer of avocado, and finally add half of the tuna. Remove the mold carefully. Decorate it with a few shiso leaves and chopped chives. Serve with some of the wasabi mayo on the side and sprinkle a bit of yuzu powder over the mayo. Repeat for the second serving.
