This authentic recipe for tuna carpaccio is as visually stunning as it is delicious and takes just 20 minutes to make. It's topped with with coarse sea salt, buttery pine nuts, tangy capers and a mound of peppery arugula dressed simply with lemon and extra virgin olive oil to really highlight the delicate flavor of raw tuna.

Classic Tuna Carpaccio with Arugula, Capers and Pine Nuts

tuna

baby arugula

lemon juice, divided

Coarse sea salt,

black pepper,

shallot,

capers,

pine nuts,

Place the tuna in the freezer for 30-60 minutes before starting to firm up the flesh and make it easier to slice. 

Use a very sharp knife to slice the tuna against the grain. Slice the tuna as thinly as you can, about 1/4 - 1/8 inch thick. Try to keep the slices as consistent as possible.

Place a slice of tuna between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or other flat surface to gently pound out the tuna so that it is paper thin and almost transparent. Be careful not to pound too hard or the tuna can tear - go slow and use caution. Repeat with all of the slices.

Remove one piece of plastic wrap and use the palm of your hand to carefully place the tuna onto a plate, then peel off the other piece of plastic wrap. Arrange the tuna slices so that they cover the entire plate, overlapping slightly if needed. This recipe makes enough to cover 2 dinner plates or one extra large platter.

In a medium bowl, toss the arugula with 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt and pepper.

Sprinkle the tuna with diced shallots, capers, pine nuts, sea salt and black pepper, then drizzle tuna with remaining 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and plenty of extra virgin olive oil.

Place a mound of arugula in the center, then serve immediately with extra lemon wedges if desired.

I used a frozen tuna steak and it turned out great! Pounding it out makes a big difference.

Absolutely fantastic!
I substituted black sesame seeds for pine nuts (that's what I had on hand) and I gave a little drizzle of balsamic vinegar on the top as well (just because).
Thank you so much!

Use the freshest fish possible in these tacos. Instead of tuna, you could use fresh or smoked salmon, sliced scallops, picked white crabmeat, or chopped cooked king prawns

Spice-cured tuna tacos

fresh line-caught tuna

limes zested, 1 juiced

cumin seeds

coriander seeds

½ tsp chilli flakes

avocados

coriander leaves

tbsp pickle liquor

flour

vegetable oil

pickled jalapeño chillies

pomegranate seeds

coriander

spring onions

limes

Slice the tuna into 1cm strips, then dice into rough 1cm cubes. Drizzle over the olive oil and scatter over the lime zest, stir and put in the fridge for 20 mins or so. Gently toast the cumin and coriander in a small frying pan, then tip into a pestle and mortar with a pinch of salt and the chilli flakes and crush to a coarse powder. Stir the spice mix into the tuna with the lime juice and put the bowl back in the fridge for at least 10 mins or up to 1 hr.

To make the avocado purée, put all the ingredients in a food processor with a pinch of salt and blitz until you have a smooth purée, adding a little oil if it’s too thick to blitz. Spoon the mixture into a container.

If you like your tacos crispy, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4, brush them with a little oil, place on a baking sheet and cook for 10-15 mins. To build each taco, spoon on some avocado purée and spread out to the edge. Spoon on the spiced tuna and sprinkle over the chillies, pomegranate seeds, coriander and spring onions, drizzle with more oil and add a lime wedge to the plate. Eat with your hands, if soft, or a knife and fork if crispy.

This bright and vibrant yuzu hamachi crudo is an absolute showstopper, but it is also ridiculously easy to prepare. This buttery and rich fish combines a citrus yuzu dressing with a herbaceous sauce to create a composed dish that you will want to make again and again.

oz Hamachi / Yellowtail (see post for substitutes)

yuzu juice

tsp ponzu

lemon wedge

fresno chili (sliced thin)

cilantro (leaves for garnishing)

micro greens

cilantro

jalapeno (pith and seeds removed)

neutral oil (avocado, canola, or vegetable oil)

Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, submerge the cleaned cilantro for 10-15 seconds, then remove it and place it in a bowl of ice water. After it has cooled, remove the cilantro from the ice bath and squeeze out all the water using a towel or paper towel.

Prep the jalapeño by removing the stem, pith, and seeds. In a hand held blender, add the cilantro, jalapeño, a pinch of salt, and the oil. Process until smooth; this may take a minute or two.

If your yellowtail is fresh, place it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up. This will make cutting the fish significantly easier. If starting from frozen, defrost it in the fridge for 30 minutes before cutting.

Cut the fish in thin slices against the grain.

In a bowl combine the yuzu juice, ponzu, and lemon juice.

Arrange the hamachi slices on a plate and top with sliced chilies. If you have a squeeze bottle, dollop some of the cilantro jalapeño purée on each piece of fish to ensure that each bite has some of the vibrant sauce. Additionally, place some dollops on the plate to mix with the sauce as you pour.

Pour the sauce onto the plate, then top with micro greens and a generous amount of cilantro leaves. Sprinkle yuzu salt or regular salt on each piece of fish. Serve immediately.
