INGREDIENTS FOR TUNA TATAKI

  • 4 yellowfin tuna fillets

INGREDIENTS FOR THE TUNA MARINADE

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce barrel-aged
  • 1 tbsp blossom honey
  • 1 fresh lime juice of it
  • 2 dried lime slices Limoo Amani
  • 2 tsp sesame oil toasted

Instructions

PREPARATION OF TUNA TATAKI

  1. Mix all the ingredients for the marinade and place the tuna fillets in it for 15 minutes. Turn them occasionally to ensure they absorb the flavors evenly.

  2. Remove the fillets from the marinade, let them drip off slightly, and coat them in sesame seeds until they are fully covered.

  3. Then, grill them for one minute on an Optigrill – this keeps the inside wonderfully tender.

  4. Finally, slice the fillets thinly and serve immediately.
