Share:
Ingredients
- 4 oz sashimi-grade tuna
- 2 green onions/scallions
- ½ tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1½ Tbsp Sriracha sauce (for the tuna; reduce for less spicy; plus 1 tsp more for the optional spicy mayo)
- 1 Tbsp Japanese Kewpie mayonnaise (optional, to make spicy mayo; you can make homemade Japanese mayo)
- 1 tsp toasted white sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients.
- Cut and separate the green and white parts of 2 green onions/scallions. Slice them finely and keep in separate piles. Set aside the green part for garnish and the white part to mix with the tuna.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1½ Tbsp sriracha sauce and ½ tsp toasted sesame oil. Mix well together.
- Cut 4 oz sashimi-grade tuna into ½-inch (1.3 cm) slices, and then cut the slices into cubes.
- Add the tuna to the bowl with the sauce mixture and toss to coat. Add the white part of the green onions and mix.
To Make the Spicy Mayo (optional)
- Combine 1 Tbsp Japanese Kewpie mayonnaise and 1 tsp sriracha sauce. Mix well.
To Serve
- Transfer the spicy tuna to a serving bowl and garnish with 1 tsp toasted white sesame seeds and the chopped green part of the green onions. Drizzle with spicy mayo (optional) and enjoy!
- You can also serve it on steamed Japanese rice Poke Bowl-style, tucked inside Spicy Tuna Rolls, or with crackers. Drizzle the optional spicy mayo on top.
To Store
- It‘s best to enjoy raw tuna on the same day. You can keep the ingredients in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
