This was a wonderful recipe I really enjoyed this, I love tuna and I love wasabi so put the two together and it is always going to be a winner with me. I served this with spinach topped with a sesame sauce and it was the perfect accompaniment, I also served the sauce on the side as a dipping sauce rather than to pour it over the tuna steaks itself. If you would like to read all the reviews of this recipe or to see all the photos please click here. I did make a couple of changes to this one which I will list below nothing major though.
Ingredients
2 Teaspoons toasted sesame seed
2 Teaspoons wasabi powder
2 Teaspoons ground pepper
1 Teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch salt
4(6 ounce) tuna steaks
1 Tablespoon wasabi powder (I used more but this is just personal preference)
1 Tablespoon water
1/4 Cup mayonnaise
1/4 Cup sour cream
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
2 Tablespoons sliced scallion
Method
All the spice ingredients can be adjusted for the size of the tuna steaks used. You will see from my photo just how big mine were so I needed more than this for 4 as this was only enough for 2.
1. Combine first 5 ingredients, rub over tuna, chill for 30 minutes.
2. Heat grill to high or pan fry.
3. Grill tuna approx 5 Min’s per side, to taste. I find 3-4 Min’s a side is perfect for medium rare which is the way I prefer my tuna.
4. Combine remaining ingredients by whisking together, serve alongside tuna. This can be made ahead of time and refrigerated until needed.

Very simple, easy and quick recipe to put together that is packed full of flavour. I served mine with spinach drizzled with a roasted sesame seed dressing.
Ingredients
4 Steak Fillet (250-300g each)
Sauce
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 Tablespoons white vinegar
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
3/4 Teaspoon wasabi (I use powdered wasabi which I prefer, but I prepare it before adding, I don’t add in powdered form.)
1 Tablespoon mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons sour cream
Method
1. In a bowl combine soy sauce, vinegar, mustard and wasabi.
2. Whisk in mayonnaise and sour cream. Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, the longer it is left the more the flavour comes through.
3. Grill, BBQ or pan fry steaks until desired doneness, slice steaks into thin slices and serve with dipping sauce.
To Serve: Arrange slices of steak on plate, serve dipping sauce along side, with a side of spinach with sesame dressing.
Bon Appetit
