Method
For the tuna: Cut tuna in a cylinder shape with a 4cm diameter and roll in kelp granules. Season and sear in a hot pan until golden. Then wrap tightly in plastic and chill. For the salad: Mix the sliced vegetables and toss with sesame seeds. Dress with fish sauce or salt and chili. (Season just before you serve or moisture will be drawn out of the vegetables too quickly.) For the soy-lime dressing: Whisk lime juice, soy sauce and brown sugar together. Slowly emulsify with sesame oil. Add coconut cream and mix well until smooth, then strain. Serving |
