List of Ingredients




Wasabi Dream Sauce:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon prepared wasabi (from tube)
2 tablespoons water

Tuna Fillets:

2 lbs. sushi-grade tuna fillet (vein removed)

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
2/3 cup ground pistachio nuts (roasted, salted)
1/2 cup black sesame seeds
1 tablespoon olive oil



Recipe



Make Wasabi Dream Sauce by blending mayonnaise, maple syrup, wasabi paste and water, and set aside. Lightly coat tuna with olive oil and rub it into the flesh. Then, season all sides with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle generously with ground pistachio nuts and black sesames; pat down to adhere and set aside (see TIPS). In a large sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil on high. Once olive oil is very hot, sear tuna (1-2 minutes on each side), then transfer to a cutting board. Slice into 1/4" to 1/2" slices and arrange onto plate. Drizzle with Wasabi Dream Sauce and serve.
