Easy Tuna Tartare Stuffed Inside Heirloom Tomatoes


Summer is the time for fresh caught tuna and garden heirloom tomatoes. When combined, you can make an insane tuna tartare stuffed inside heirloom tomatoes. This new simple recipe utilizes both the buttery goodness of fresh tuna, and the tart-sweetness heirloom tomatoes.

With the heirloom tomatoes, you can use the fresh tomato juices locked inside. Then, use tomato's hollowed out body acts as a vessel for the tuna tartare. That's why heirloom tomatoes are a must for this recipe, their taste is superior--period!

With the So Cal tuna season in full swing, and our recording breaking heat, this is the perfect recipe to avoid cooking in your kitchen. So if you have some tuna sitting in the refrigerator or freezer, it's time to try this easy tuna tartare recipe. Enjoy.

And if you need another tuna fish salad recipe, try an Italian classic, Tuna Panzanella Salad.

Easy Tuna Tartare

1 pound tuna, 1/2-in dice

5 medium sized heirloom tomatoes

3-5 Thai chiles sliced finely

1 sprig of parsley fine cut

1 medium lemon (or lime) juiced

2 tablespoons soy sauce

Sea salt

Make The Easy Tuna Tartare

1. Once you've diced your tuna, refrigerate it until needed.

2. Remove the tops off the heirloom tomatoes and then

scoop out the tomatoes' insides. Reserve the juices from

the tomatoes, inside a small mixing bowl while discarding

fleshy pulp (or save the fleshy pulp for another dish!)

3 Now, start creating the tartare sauce by combining the

juices from the tomatoes with the lemon juice and the soy

sauce and then mix. Next add the tartare sauce to the tuna

and then mix. Caution: only add enough tartare sauce to

oat the tuna.

4. Finally, add the tuna tartare mixture into tomato cavities

and garnish with parsley, Thai chiles and sea salt.
