Ingredients
Scale
For the Tuna
- 12 oz sashimi-grade tuna steaks (about 2–3 small tuna steaks)
For the Spicy Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Kewpie Japanese mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- ½ teaspoon crispy chili oil
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- ⅛ teaspoon flaky salt
For Garnish
- 1 tablespoon scallion, finely sliced
Instructions
- Prepare tuna: Pat the tuna steaks dry using paper towels, then dice them into small, even cubes to ensure they absorb the sauce evenly and provide a pleasant texture.
- Mix sauce: In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the Kewpie Japanese mayonnaise, sesame oil, crispy chili oil, sriracha, and flaky salt to create a creamy, spicy dressing that complements the tuna.
- Toss tuna: Add the diced tuna into the bowl with the sauce and gently fold until each piece is well coated, being careful not to break up the delicate tuna cubes.
- Finish: Sprinkle the finely sliced scallions over the tuna mixture for a fresh, bright flavor, and serve immediately to enjoy at its freshest.
Notes
- Use sashimi-grade tuna for safety and the best texture.
- Adjust the sriracha and chili oil quantities to your preferred spice level.
- Serve immediately to preserve freshness and texture of the raw tuna.
- This recipe is ideal as a light appetizer or served over rice for a main dish.
