This easy, healthy appetizer will shock you with how quickly it comes together. Make sure to use the freshest tuna available (I happened upon a great sale at my grocery store, but you may have to pay a few dollars more for the good stuff), and a ripe-but-not-too-soft avocado for the right consistency.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb sashimi grade yellow-fin tuna, chopped into small pieces $6
- 1/2 small red onion, chopped finely $0.50
- 1 avocado, diced $1.50
- 1 tbsp olive oil Pantry
- juice and zest of 1/2 lemon $0.50
- 1 very small bunch fresh mint, minced $1
- 1 very small piece ginger, minced $1
- salt and pepper to taste Pantry
- 1 cucumber, sliced into 1/4"-thick slices, on the bias $1
Recipe Serves 2
Directions
- Combine all ingredients except cucumber in a mixing bowl until well-incorporated.
- Spoon mixture into a short drinking glass or cylinder mold. Press down gently to pack. Place, open end down, in the center of a plate and gently slide up to remove glass or mold, leaving a tower. Arrange cucumber slices around the tower and use to scoop up the tartare.

Nice. I’d use lime instead of lemon, but that might just be me.

This looks and sounds wonderful, But I’m always hesitant to buy tuna and serve it raw. I make an awesome seared tuna every now and then, but raw scares me a bit.

Hey Gabi….if I’m making this for a dinner party tonight, how far in advance can I prepare it? Or should I just bring the ingredients & prepare when I get there?

Se ve y suena bien, pero todavía dudo en comprar atún y servirlo crudo. Ocasionalmente preparo un excelente atún frito, pero el atún crudo me asusta un poco.
