Steps

Prepare Potatoes

Peel the potatoes, cut them into uniform pieces, and boil them in salted water until tender (about 15-20 minutes). While they cook, prepare the tuna.

Prepare Tuna

Pat the tuna steaks dry with paper towels, then brush them lightly with soy sauce. On a shallow plate, mix the white and black sesame seeds, then coat the tuna steaks thoroughly on all sides. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Sear Tuna

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna steaks for 1-2 minutes per side, depending on your desired doneness. The goal is a crispy sesame crust with a pink center.

Make Wasabi Puree

Drain the cooked potatoes, then add butter, milk, and wasabi paste. Mash them with a potato masher or blend with an immersion blender until creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or more wasabi if needed.

Serve

Serve the sesame-crusted tuna steak immediately with the spicy wasabi mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
