Instructions

Working time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 45 minutes

as a starter or main course

First, cut the tuna into slices or strips no more than 5 mm thick. Make the marinade for the tuna using finely chopped ginger, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 2 tbsp chili sauce, and a pinch of salt. Arrange the tuna slices on a plate, brush both sides with the marinade, and cover with foil. Place in the refrigerator. Now boil the two potatoes in their jackets in about 1 liter of water with 1 tsp salt and a tsp caraway seeds. Since this process takes about 30 minutes, you can prepare the vegetables without worrying. To do this, heat a pan until very hot and add the sesame oil. Briefly and intensively fry the snow peas (cut into strips), the Thai asparagus (cut into 4 cm pieces), and the spring onions (quartered and cut into 4 cm pieces). Now stir in the pickled ginger and after about 5 minutes, deglaze with the soy sauce and ginger juice. Stir in the oyster sauce, season with salt and sugar, and let stand for a maximum of 5 minutes. The potatoes should be soft by now. Remove them from the water, peel them, and press them through a potato ricer. Add the butter and hot milk (heated in the microwave) to the mashed potatoes, along with a generous pinch of salt. Stir the potato, milk, and butter mixture until very smooth and add the roughly chopped coriander. When serving, arrange a nest of the asparagus, green pepper, and leek vegetables. In the center of the nest, place a tartlet made from the mashed potatoes and top it with the marinated tuna.
