fresh tuna
Oh, but we got lucky yesterday. Went into town and found the fish shop
had some fresh tuna. (***Fresh***) Pricey, but what the hell. I got
about 350g between Suze and myself ... got home, cut tuna into maybe
3/4" slices, sprinkled with blk.pepper, salt, lemon juice and into the
smoking olive oil they went. Seared to a medium brown both sides I
reduced the heat and did them for another 4 minutes or so ... side dish
of mashed potatoes (I worked the oil-and-tuna-fat from the pan into the
mash with a pinch of nutmeg & salt) and that was it. Tried topping the
steaks on the plate with a bit of avocado and lemon, just lemon, or
nothing ... found the avocado a little too distracting, the other two
were equally good.
Mmmmmh - Hmmmmm. A rare treat :-)
