Stefan's Malibu tuna tower
Without a doubt this is my favorite take on tuna! Prepare your tastebuds for a
cacophony of perfectly matched flavors. As the tuna is served raw in this recipe, make
sure you buy good quality, sushi grade fish. Top with the lime juice right at the last
minute as otherwise it starts to 'cook' the fish.
450g fresh ahi tuna
1 avocado, chopped
1 thumb sized piece of
ginger, peeled and grated
1 handful
coriander leaves, stalks removed
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 scallions, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon, zested
1 lime, zested
Pinch cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper
TO GARNISH:
Coriander seeds
1. Slice the tuna into small squares, then de-stone and peel
the avocado and cut into the same sized pieces.
2. Place the tuna and avocado in a bowl and add in the rest
of the ingredients. Use only the lemon and lime zest. Stir
well and refrigerate until needed.
3. To shape, pile the tuna and avocado mixture into a food
ring and squeeze over a little lime juice just before serving.
Remove the ring and garnish with coriander seeds and a
slice of lemon.
