MISO seared SESAME CRUSTED TUNA

vindex tengker

Menu ini pernah saya buat sebagai appetizer pada acara Gala Dinner Martel.  Pilih tuna yang bagus dan segar. Saya masak setengah matang atau medium, dimana tengahnya masih berwarna pink agar mendapatkan texture yang masih moist dan kesegaran serta rasa manis tuna masih dapat. Boleh juga matang, namun jangan sampai kematangan, karena texture akan keras.


Bahan:

1 kilogram tuna fillet, bersihkan, potong

1 sendok makan miso pasta merah

4 sendok makan wijen hitam dan putih, sangrai



Cara mengolah:

Lumuri tuna dengan miso pasta hingga rata ke semua permukaan.  Lalu tabur wijen diatas permukaannya dan tekan2 sedikit agar tuna menempel.

Panaskan wajan anti lengket dengan panas sedang.  Lalu masak tuna sesuai keinginan (saya masak medium).  Masak juga sisi sebelahnya.  Angkat dan sisihkan.



Miso Dressing:

½ cangkir white miso

½ cangkir sake manis

¼ cangkir cuka beras

1 ½ sendok teh sambal manis (bila suka)

Garam secukupnya



Cara membuat:

Campur semua bahan dan sisihkan.



Penyajian:  iris tuna setebal 1 ½ cm, atur diatas piring lalu sajikan dengan miso dressing di sebelahnya atau siram sedikit.
