Instead of Taco Tuesday, how about Tuna Nacho Tuesday?! We have here my version of tuna tartare nachos using raw chopped sushi grade tuna that I marinated in a soy, garlic, ginger, lime, shallot and sesame oil. I sprinkled the tuna over large store-bought tortilla chips, topped with chopped cucumber, fresh mango, avocado, scallions, fresh cilantro, drizzle of homemade sriracha aioli and sprinkle of sesame seeds. This is a great party starter. You could also sear the tuna first if you prefer it cooked a bit more. Either way, it’s an alternate take on a standard poke bowl and will impress your guests.

Tuna tartare

Use a fork (or your hands) to gently toss the tuna in the other ingredients, until evenly coated. Taste the tuna mixture, and add a pinch of salt if you find it necessary. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavours to combine.
