Multi-Spiced Crusted Tuna 'Steak' with Black Bean-Shiraz Butter Sauce Copyright, 2000, Ming Tsai, All Rights Reserved


Show: East Meets West With Ming Tsai


Episode: Meatlovers' Seafood

















1 center cut tuna loin, 2 pounds


Fleur de sel, to season


2 tablespoons coarse ground black peppercorns


2 tablespoons coarse ground pink peppercorns


2 tablespoons coarse ground coriander


1 tablespoon ground cumin


1 tablespoon coarse ground Szechwan peppercorns


1 tablespoon ancho chile powder


Canola oil, to cook


Black Bean-Shiraz Butter Sauce:


4 sliced shallots


1/2 tablespoon rinsed and chopped fermented black beans


1 tablespoon minced ginger


1/2 bottle Shiraz


1/4 cup heavy cream


3/4 pound very cold butter, 1/2-inch dice


Salt and black pepper, to taste


Roasted Shiitake And Yukon Gold Potatoes, recipe follows


Citrus Pea Sprout Salad, recipe follows








Cut the loin in 4 equal, thick 'steaks'. Trim off any sinew. On a plate. Mix together all the spices. Season the tuna steaks with salt then dredge them in the spice mix. In a very hot saute pan coated lightly with oil, sear the tuna until it becomes dark brown then flip, about 3 minutes a side. The tuna will still be rare and slightly warmed. Let rest 3 minutes before slicing in half on the bias.


For the Black Bean-Shiraz Butter Sauce: In a non-reactive saucepan, add the shallots, black beans, ginger and wine. Bring to a simmer and completely reduce the wine. When wine is gone, add the cream and bring to a simmer. Immediately transfer to a blender and blend at high speed. Add the butter, 1 piece at a time. Season with salt and pepper and check for seasoning. Keep warm in a hot water bath. Plating: On large, round plates, place a mound of potatoes in the center. Top with the tuna and top that with the salad. Place the sauce around the tuna and drizzle with a little vinaigrette.

tuna pasta salad quick, easy and cheap to make!
Here are some ideas for using tuna.


1. sandwiches


2. mac and cheese with tuna and frozen peas in the end.


3. egg noodles with tuna, cream of mushroom soup, cheese and peas or without the peas. Top with crushed crackers, bread crumbs, potato chips.


4. In the summer, I like to fill large hollowed out tomatoes and fill with almost the same mixture as I make for a sandwich. Soo good.


5. Tuna and cheese open face melts on a good hearty bread.


6.Using won ton skins, fill with tuna and cream cheese and chives (1 can, 1 pkg ) and fold as you would won tons and fry.


Hope this helps. Enjoy!
