Tuna Tartare

This is one of my favorite appetizers. Easy to make, lots of chopping. I use ramekins and invert them with the tuna being on the top.  Serve with rice crackers or make won ton cups.

INGREDIENTS

½ lb of sushi grade Tuna, cut into small cubes
4 green onions, finely chopped
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

1 avocado, chopped into small pieces
1/2 cup diced cucumber
A handful of cilantro, chopped
1 tbsb lime juice
pinch of salt & pepper

Sauce
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbsp. grated ginger
2 spring onions, chopped
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp honey


Instructions

1.   Add all the sauce ingredients to a bowl and mix together. Set aside.
2.   Add the cut up tuna, green onions and sesame seeds directly to the bowl of sauce and mix until combined.
3.   In a separate bowl, mix together the finely chopped avocado, cucumber, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
4.   Plate your tartare by using a mould or a circular ramekin.
