Simple eats | Seared tuna with pak choy

My mum recently bought some tuna steaks and I really struggled what to do with them. I had the most amazing tuna dish when I went to Alec’s, so decided to kind of re-create that. Obviously you could add more green vegetables or even serve it with some brown rice, or thin noodles. I went simple and healthy – seared tuna with pak choy!

Serves 1

Ingredients

1 tuna steak
3 tsp light soy sauce (try and use reduced salt if you can)
2 tsp Chinese rice wine
½ tsp grated fresh ginger (you can thinly slice it, but I hate the texture)
½ tsp chilli flakes (more or less, dependent on your preference)
1 head of pak choy

Method

1. Mix together all the ingredients for the marinade in a ramekin
2. Heat up a griddle/frying pan and add 3 tsp of the mixture to it
3. Add the tuna and cook for 3-4 minutes each side
4. Set aside and add the rest of the marinade to the pan
5. Stir fry the pak choy for 2-3 minutes, or until the stalks aren’t so tough and the leaves have wilted
6. Serve the tuna on a bed of pak choy
