Spicy Seared Tuna with Wasabi Dressing

(serves two)

2 tuna steaks, the VERY best qual­ity you can get
2 tsps each: pre­pared wasabi, miso paste, lime juice, soy sauce
1/2 tsp ground ginger

Can you get pre­pared wasabi and miso paste where you live? I don’t know. But you can order them. Just fol­low the links.

Mix all the mari­nade ingre­di­ents together and pour over the tuna steaks on a large plate. Turn the steaks over to coat both sides. Mar­i­nate for at least an hour, or even overnight.

Heat a non­stick skil­let as hot as you can (within rea­son) and plop the tuna steaks into it, then pour the mari­nade over the top. Sear on one side for 1 minute, then turn and sear the other side for 1 minute. Place on top of a salad of rocket, water­cress, avo­cado and halved baby toma­toes and top with a dress­ing of exactly the same pro­por­tions as the mari­nade, with a table­spoon of sun­flower, saf­flower or any other mild oil added.
