Sesame Crusted Tuna With Japanese Dipping Sauce image

Tuna steaks with a sesame seed crust served with a Japanese dipping sauce. Very easy, quick and healthy meal to prepare.

Provided by The Flying Chef

Categories     Tuna

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

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)
18 g paste miso
3 tablespoons mirin
3 tablespoons sake
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons Japanese soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon wasabi

Steps:

  • The above ingredients can be found in a lot of regular grocery stores. But you will find them in just about any Asian grocery store. There are imitation mirins out there, which are without alcohol they are fine but tend to be sweeter I would use less if buying these.
  • Cover one side of tuna completely with sesame seeds and place steaks back in fridge.
  • Combine all the other ingredients in a saucepan heat until blended and sugar has dissolved. Leave on low heat to keep warm.
  • Heat some olive oil in a fry pan, place Tuna sesame seed side down cook for 4 minutes turn over and cook on the other side for a further 4 minutes. 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.

SEARED TUNA BITES WQITH DIPPING SAUCES



SEARED TUNA BITES WQITH DIPPING SAUCES image

Categories     Sauce     Fish     Soy     Appetizer     Sauté     Vegetarian

Yield 8 - 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Seared Tuna:
¾ cup sesame seeds (mixed white and black seeds, if possible)
4 (6 oz.) sushi-quality fresh tuna steaks, 1" thick
salt & fresh-ground pepper
2 tblsp. olive oil
Wasabi Dipping Sauce:
2 scallions, chopped fine
1 tsp. coriander chopped fine
2 tblsp. lime juice
3 tblsp. soy sauce
1 ½ tblsp. wasabi powder
6 tblsp. butter
Spicy Soy Dipping Sauce:
3 tblsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. sugar
¼ tsp. cayenne pepper flakes
½ cup chicken broth (canned or from cubes okay!)
1 tsp. sesame oil
1 scallion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped

Steps:

  • First make the Dipping Sauces. For the Spicy Soy sauce, combine the soy sauce, sugar, cayenne pepper, and chicken broth in a bowl. Heat the sesame oil and saute chopped scallion and garlic for one minute. Turn heat down to low, add the soy sauce mixture, and simmer until reduced to 1/3 cup, about 2 minutes. For the Wasabi Dipping Sauce, Stir together all ingredients except the butter, bring to a boil, remove from heat, and whisk in the butter. Then wash & pat dry tuna steaks. Season with salt & pepper and roll them in sesame seeds to coat. In a non-stick pan, heat the oil until very hot (smoking), add tuna steaks and "saear" tuna, cooking only until the white sesame seeds start to turn gold, about one minute. While you can cook them longer, don't overcook! Carefully turn the tuna steaks and cook them for another minute. Transfer tuna steaks to a cutting board and cut them into appetizer-sized cubes. Spear with toothpicks and serve immediately with dipping sauces.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tuna: Opt for sushi-grade or sashimi-grade tuna for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the tuna bites will taste. Aim for ripe avocado, crisp cucumber, and zesty lime juice.
  • Don't overmix the tuna: Overmixing can result in a mushy texture. Gently fold the ingredients together until just combined.
  • Chill the tuna bites before serving: This helps the flavors to meld and firms up the texture, making them easier to eat.
  • Serve with a variety of dipping sauces: Dijon dipping sauce is a classic, but you can also try other sauces like soy sauce, wasabi mayonnaise, or sriracha mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Asian tuna bites with Dijon dipping sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick and healthy meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of prep, you can enjoy these flavorful tuna bites in no time. So next time you're looking for a tasty and healthy snack, give this recipe a try!
