Tuna Tartar.

Super food, tuna. I love and I miss it, although, when I worked in Dinings, I mainly had in a from of spicy tuna roll.  This recipe I’ve seen in “Food and Drink” a few months ago and I wanted to make it right away, but obtaining super fresh tuna was a bit of an issue.  I happened to be in Waitrose Cheltenham today and there were tuna steaks, beautifully red and fresh, I snapped one up immediately.

Tuna steak chopped roughly, as Monsieur Roux likes it, chopped spring onion, half a chilli, a small piece of ginger and some chopped coriander all mixed together. Dressing- toasted sesame seeds, soy sauce, sesame oil, a touch of honey and a squeeze of lime.

We’ve just finished it with Florek( I’d happily have twice the portion), sipping very decent Barolo with it and I’m thinking I’d make it next month, when Aska and Jedrek come over, but I’d double the chilli and ginger and instead of lime juice, I’d add yuzu.  And the toast will be ciabatta, not a granary roll from Norths Bakery. Yeah. 🙂
