Tonight, I met up for sushi with a good friend. The restaurant was your standard, dime-a-dozen sushi joint that I frequent often, it’s my go-to for a sushi lunch since it’s close to my office. This time, however, I was enticed by a photo of their tuna tataki tacos, an item I’d never seen or tried before.
Four mini tacos came to our table lined up in a long narrow dish reminiscent of an olive server and we were pleasantly surprised by the sophisticated presentation. Verdict? Yum! It’s now on my list to try making them at home.
The ingredients looked something like this:
- thin slices of tuna, seared
- avocado, sliced
- pea shoots
- lettuce, shredded thin
- chili sauce
- japanese mayo
- round wonton skins, fried into a taco shape
Simple enough and tasty. I’ll let you know how it goes.
