Not really a chef. I just want a recipe archive without the story of how some enchiladas saved their great uncle Sven.

Crunchy tuna tostada crowned with fried leak and soaked in a lime sauce. Mouthwatering!

Ingredients:
#

  • Diced poke tuna
  • 8 Limes
  • Soy Sauce
  • Magui Juice
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • 1-2 Leeks
  • Sriracha Mayo
  • Tostadas
  • (optional) Avocado

Instructions
#

We will start by preparing a seafood black sauce popular in coastal mexico (sinaloa). The instructions are not very reliable but follow a general rule. We start by squeezing the 8 limes into a container. Into this container you’ll slowly add soy sauce until the mix is a dark brown color. Then a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce and a teaspoon of Magui juice. The dominant flavors should be lime and then soy sauce in that order. Set aside. (Optional: You can set aside a bit of this sauce and marinate some diced poke tuna for extra flavor)

Chop the white part of the leek in thin long slices. Heat up oil (I do a medium heat) in a small pan and fry the chopped leak until it’s golden brown. Be careful, it burns very quickly.

(Optional: Dice avocado in cubes the size of your tuna)

In a bowl, lightly coat your diced poke tuna in sriracha mayo. Just a very light glaze. With this all left is assembly.

Assembly and plating instructions
#

Get your Tostada and smear some sriracha mayo on it to act as glue. Place in this order the tuna (and avocado), a generous amount of fried leek, then pour about a spoonful of your seafood black sauce on top trying to get most of it soaked.

Personally, I like breaking the tostada in smaller parts to make it look more fancy. It’s also easier to carry and eat without it falling apart.
