Ingredients
  

  • 400 g Fresh tuna (Tuna Tenderloin or Ventresca area)
  • 2 Avocados
  • 1/2 Chives
  • 1/2 Lemon
  • 1 Tsp Capers
  • 1 Pinch Mustard
  • 3 Tbsp Soy Sauce
  • Sesame Seeds
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Let's start by chopping the spring onion very well. Cut it into small cubes as fine as possible. Do the same with the capers. Set aside.
    We also cut the tuna into cubes, the size you prefer.
    1/2 Chives, 1 Tsp Capers, 400 g Fresh tuna
  • In a bowl mix the soy sauce, a pinch of mustard, and a pinch of salt. Do not add too much salt, because remember that soy sauce already has a lot of flavor, and it is easy to overdo it with salt. It is better to rectify if it is too bland.
    Mix well and add the spring onion and tuna. Mix again, so that these two ingredients are soaked with the marinade and let stand between 5 and 15 minutes.
    1/2 Chives, 1 Pinch Mustard, 3 Tbsp Soy Sauce, 400 g Fresh tuna
  • In another bowl, add the avocado, previously diced. Add the juice of half a lemon, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of oil. Mix and set aside.
    2 Avocados, 1/2 Lemon, Salt, Extra virgin olive oil
  • Now all that remains is to plate our tartar. We can use a mold to give it the characteristic presentation. To do this, put a base of avocado, about halfway up the mold. Press with the back of a spoon so that it settles, and thus prevent it from falling apart when unmolded.
  • Place the tuna on top, press and ready. Decorate with sesame seeds, and we can remove the mold and serve our delicious tartar.
