A Common Plea For Tartare



LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
Got a Labor Day party today? Well this is something special. Now, it's nothing fancy here, just tuna and Pringles.  Actually the way it's presented is very fancy, but the ingredients are not.  Chef Rossi, who owns The Raging Skillet in New York City, and has a new cookbook out by the same name, came by Tonia's Kitchen to talk about her recipe for Tuna Tartare. She starts with sushi-quality tuna, and adds sesame-oil and wasabi.  Cook it all up and serve on a potato chip, or if you really want to get attention on a Pringle!  She says it's so much fun, and a little on the absurd side!

  • 300 grams of sushi grade Tuna, cut into small cubes4 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 avocado, chopped into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup diced cucumber
  • A handful of cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tbsb lime juice
