Sticky hoisin tuna recipe
Hoisin tuna recipe
Tuna is such a meaty fish, it works brilliantly on the barbecue – just add a tasty sauce. Be careful not to overcook it as well-done tuna becomes dry.
Preparation time: 15 minutes, plus marinating
Cooking time: 6 to 8 minutes
Serves 4
6tbsp hoisin sauce
2tbsp soy sauce
2tsp sesame oil
2tsp sugar
4 sustainably caught tuna steaks
1 Combine all the marinade ingredients in a non-metallic bowl and coat the tuna well. Marinate for at least an hour, or up to overnight.
2 When ready to serve, remove the tuna from the marinade and shake off the excess. Cook on the barbecue for 3 minutes on each side, which will give you medium-rare. Serve with green vegetables, with soy and toasted sesame seeds scattered over.
