Seared Tuna with Wasabi-Butter Sauce image

I've had the seared tuna in nice restaurants, but this is better than all of them. One tablespoon of wasabi sounds like a lot of heat, but somehow this cooking method mellows it to almost nothing, just leaves the flavor. Really really great.

FRESH TUNA AND WASABI CREAM

If you want to try something a little different and you like sushi. Try this. The tuna, cucumber and wasabi cream can be prepared 3 hours ahead. But cover and store separately in refrigerator and then assembled when you are ready to serve the meal. NOTE: I have said 30 minutes for cooking time but the 30 minutes is for the marinade for the cucumber. The whole recipe can be prepared under the 60 minutes that I have allowed. I use more than the 1 1/2 teaspoons of Wasabi as I like it HOT! Enjoy.
