I went to the store the other day and the Tuna just looked so fresh and good, so I thought I would buy some. I ate at a restaurant last year and had a really good sesame crusted Tuna with a dipping sauce, I have experimented since then to try and make something similar. I'm sure it is not exactly the same but it tastes great and is a really light healthy meal.
Ingredients
olive oil
4 Tuna steaks
Sesame seeds (I haven't listed quantity as it will vary for size of steaks, but enough to cover one side of tuna)
1 sachet miso paste (18g)
3 Tablespoons mirin
3 Tablespoons sake
2 Tablespoons sugar
2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
2 Teaspoons Japanese soy sauce
1/4 Teaspoon wasabi
Method
1. Cover one side of tuna completely with sesame seeds and place steaks back in fridge.
2. Combine all the other ingredients in a saucepan heat until blended and sugar has dissolved. Leave on low heat to keep warm.
3. Heat some olive oil in a fry pan, place Tuna sesame seed side down cook for 4 Min's turn over and cook on the other side for a further 4 Min's. Tuna should be pink in the middle so vary cooking time for how thick the cut is. You can cook it all the way through if preferred, but the tuna will be a lot drier and tough.
Serve tuna on plate with dipping sauce in separate small serving bowls.
I served mine with spinach topped with a roasted sesame seed dressing.
