Ingredients

  • 150g Tuna Steak
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g mangetout
  • 80g cucumber
  • 15g miso paste
  • 5g ginger
  • 5g honey
  • 3g sesame oil
  • 5g sesame seeds

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the mangetout and cucumber, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Sear the tuna steak in a very hot pan for 60-90 seconds per side, keeping the centre pink, then slice.

  4. 4

    Whisk the miso, grated ginger, honey and sesame oil with a tablespoon of warm water. Brush over the protein and drizzle the rest over the bowl.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the mangetout and cucumber for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and tuna steak, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the sesame seeds.
