Steps:

  • For the pico de "guyo": Remove the thin outer layers of the onion and chop into 1/8- by 1/8-inch pieces. Chop the jalapeno in half and remove the seeds and inner membrane (use gloves when handling the jalapeno). Dice the jalapeno into small pieces. Cut the tomatoes into 1/8- by 1/8-inch pieces. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the mix. Add the salt and pepper. Let all the ingredients sit and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • For the cilantro lime sauce: Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder and onion powder together and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • For the corn tortillas: Place the corn flour in a mixing bowl. Add the salt and pepper. Slowly add the water while mixing the dough with your hands until it becomes a tad bit softer than a "play dough" consistency. Break off the dough into twenty-four 1/4-inch round balls. Flatten the dough using a tortilla press that has been lined with a ziptop bag on each side. Remove the dough and place directly onto a skillet that has been lightly oiled and heated to 350 degrees F. When you notice the dough just beginning to show stress cracks, about 3 minutes, flip it and cook an additional 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stack with paper towels in between each tortilla.
  • For the blackening seasoning: Combine the oregano, thyme, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper and white pepper in a bowl and mix together.
  • For the fish: Cut your fresh fish into small cubes about 1/4- by 1/4-inch. Sprinkle liberally with 1/2 tablespoon of the blackening seasoning. Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the fish to the pan and saute for 1 minute. Add the garlic to the pan and continue to saute for about 45 more seconds. Add the wine and cilantro. Finish cooking about 1 more minute.
  • Reheat the tortillas if necessary, remove from the heat and add some lettuce, cooked fish, cilantro lime sauce and pico de "guyo". Serve 3 per plate. Enjoy!

Steps:

  • Mix black pepper, salt, cumin, garlic powder, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Rub all over tuna steaks. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir pineapple, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, red pepper, and lime zest for salsa together in a bowl until combined. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

TUNA TACOS

This is a tuna taco recipe I created 25 years ago. It is easy, quick, and very tasty. When served with crackers it makes a really good light snack or appetizer. I find that once you start eating them you really can't stop. I like to serve this with a chicken rice. To lighten the recipe, you can eat with crackers.

Spice-cured tuna tacos image

Steps:

  • Slice the tuna into 1cm strips, then dice into rough 1cm cubes. Drizzle over the olive oil and scatter over the lime zest, stir and put in the fridge for 20 mins or so. Gently toast the cumin and coriander in a small frying pan, then tip into a pestle and mortar with a pinch of salt and the chilli flakes and crush to a coarse powder. Stir the spice mix into the tuna with the lime juice and put the bowl back in the fridge for at least 10 mins or up to 1 hr.
  • To make the avocado purée, put all the ingredients in a food processor with a pinch of salt and blitz until you have a smooth purée, adding a little oil if it's too thick to blitz. Spoon the mixture into a container.
  • If you like your tacos crispy, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4, brush them with a little oil, place on a baking sheet and cook for 10-15 mins. To build each taco, spoon on some avocado purée and spread out to the edge. Spoon on the spiced tuna and sprinkle over the chillies, pomegranate seeds, coriander and spring onions, drizzle with more oil and add a lime wedge to the plate. Eat with your hands, if soft, or a knife and fork if crispy.
