Ingredients
- 1 pound tuna loin
- 1/2 pound soba noodles, cooked, drained
- Rice wine vinegar
- Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon marasala tikka (available in far Eastern grocery stores)
- Peanut oil
- 1/2 pound fresh spinach
Method
Step 1
In a medium size bowl toss soba noodles with 2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon sesame oil, set aside.
Step 2
Wash and rinse then drain the spinach. Heat a saute pan and add spinach. Toss for about one minute, until leaves are just wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange on a plate.
Step 3
Heat another saute pan. Slice the tuna loin into two triangles. Toss in the marasala tikka, covering all sides with a thin layer. Place both pieces of tuna in the hot pan and sear for no more than 30 seconds on each side (for rare tuna). Remove from the pan.
Step 4
Slice the tuna into 1/4-inch slices. Top the plated spinach with noodles and arrange the tuna on top
