Tuna Tartare with Baked Wonton Chips

May 31, 2012 By Lokness 4 Comments

For Bryan and my anniversary dinner, I wanted to make a fancy restaurant style menu. Tuna tartare is just perfect. It is one of the most common appetizers in restaurant. When I stumbled upon this recipe online, I knew that I have to try it. And I am so glad I did! It was so easy! The tartare was fresh and flavorful. Savory and little spicy. It was great with the crispy wonton chips. This is no doubt the best appetizer that I have made so far. Oh, did I mention that there is no cooking at all? Get everything ready ahead of time and toss them all together at the last minute. Tah dah! Great for dinner party!

Tuna Tartare with Baked Wonton Chips (Adapted from 14K restaurant via Los Angeles Times & sweetnicks.com)

2 servings

Ingredients:

–   8 ounces sushi-grade tuna (cut into ¼-inch dices)

–   2 ½ teaspoons chives (minced)

–   2 ½ teaspoons shallot (minced)

–   2 ½ teaspoons soy sauce

–   2 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard

–   2 teaspoons sesame oil

–   1 ½ teaspoon olive oil

–   1 teaspoon chile oil

–   juice from ½ cold lime

–   toasted black sesame seeds

Wonton chips:

–   5 – 7 wonton skins (cut in half, diagonally, into triangles)

–   cooking spray

–   salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with the cooking spray. Place the wonton chips on the baking sheet. Spray oil over the top of the chips. Bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Season with salt. Remove the chips and cool them on a rack. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chives, shallot, soy sauce, mustard, sesame oil, olive oil, chile oil and lime juice. Toss the tuna with the mixture. Transfer the tuna tartare into a plating ring on a serving plate. Press down the tuna gently and remove the ring slowly. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the tuna. Serve immediately alongside the baked wonton chips.

Looking for a refreshing beverage this summer? Thi Looking for a refreshing beverage this summer? This Thai Iced Tea w/ Lime (Cha Ma Nao) can’t be more perfect. It’s made w/ the same tea mix like Thai iced tea, but without dairy & with lime juice. Seriously much better than Thai iced tea in my opinion! Light, little sour & little sweet!

While in Miami, I fulfilled my wish of eating a Cu While in Miami, I fulfilled my wish of eating a Cubano in the Sunshine State. I did a ton of researches to find the best Cubano in Miami. I ended up going to Sanguich (@sanguichdemiami) in Little Havana. Light Cuban bread, slow roasted pork, sweet ham, Swiss cheese, pickles & mustard. Perfectly pressed! Juicy, flavorful, & just amazing!

A totally unexpected trip to Miami. Didn’t find A totally unexpected trip to Miami. Didn’t find out until 36 hours before departure, Bryan had to fill in for a co-worker. Even though Bryan was busy at conference most of the time, we did get a quick glimpse of Ocean Drive in South Beach. Love the Art Deco architecture & colorful neon light. Very iconic!

Even though it was drizzling almost the whole time we were there, it’s still gorgeous! Haggis was absolutely delicious. If you don’t know what it’s made of, it really tasted like flavorful ground meat w/ little chewy texture from the oatmeal. We loved it! Next time, I would like to check out Loch Ness too!😉
