This is part 1 of 2 of a couple of recipes I cooked up using a gorgeous piece of tuna here on lockdown in Thailand. We take the less-prime piece and turn them into a tartare bursting with big flavours! This dish takes a bit of time and skill to prepare, but these big, bold flavours and balance of sweet, salty, spicy and sour will impress everyone, guaranteed.

Tuna Tartare with Mango, Avocado & Oriental Dressing
Serves 4
For the Oriental Dressing:
1 tbsp lemongrass, very finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled, very finely chopped
1 tsp garlic, peeled, very finely chopped
1 each Thai birds eye chilli, seeded, very finely chopped
1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
3 tbsp neutral oil (canola, grapeseed, vegetable)
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 each lime, juiced
For the Tartare:
600g pc tuna loin (from a trusted fishmonger-as you’ll be eating it raw), cleaned of sinew & diced
1/2 ripe mango, cut into small dice (same size as tuna)
1 ripe avocado, cut into small dice (same size as tuna)
2 thai shallots, peeled, finely chopped (rinsed under cold water if they are strong)
Salt (preferably kosher, Maldon flakes) to taste
Something crisp to eat it with (tortilla chips, flatbreads, etc)-optional
