A Japanese style recipe from Nigella Lawson’s ” Forever Summer” . You can grill, fry or barbeque the fish, but only cook it briefly .She recommends serving with tender stem broccoli.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsps white wine vinegar
- 150 ml white wine
- 2 shallots peeled and finely chopped
- 1 heaped tsp wasabi paste
- 1 tbsp dark soy sauce or tamari
- 250 g unsalted butter cold and diced into 1 cm cubes
- sea salt & black pepper
- 1 bunch fresh coriander chopped
- 6 x 150 g tuna fillets
Servings:
Instructions
- Heat the grill or griddle pan for the tuna while you make the sauce.
- Put the vinegar, wine and shallots into a small saucepan and simmer to reduce the liquid to 1-2 tbsps. Strain this reduction and return to the pan with the wasabi and soy . Then, over a very gentle heat, whisk in the cubes of butter, one at a time, so that the sauce emulsifies. Be very careful it does not boil as it will split. Once most of the butter is in you can add a couple of cubes at a time.
- When all the butter is whisked in check the seasoning and add the coriander then set aside.
- Quickly grill the tuna and serve with the sauce alongside in a jug or bowl.
