This is one of my favourite tuna recipes. Easy and quick with a wonderful balance of flavours.
4 yellow fin tuna steaks (each 100g, 2½ cm thick)
1t salt
2t lime juice
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2T fish masala
2T oil
2T chopped fresh coriander
Citrus salsa
4T coconut milk
1T palm (or brown) sugar, to taste
1 mandarin (optional), peeled & segmented
1 lemon, peeled & segmented
1 orange, peeled & segmented
¼ pink grapefruit, peeled & segmented
¼ pineapple, peeled & chopped
Clean and dry the tuna. Mix the salt, lime juice, garlic and masala and coat the steaks. Marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.
Prepare the citrus salsa. Heat the coconut milk and dissolve the sugar in it. Cool. Combine the fruit (membranes removed where needed).
Brush the fish with the oil and cook for about 4 minutes on a side in a griddle pan, over coals or gas. Serve with the salsa and coconut milk, garnished with coriander.
