Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.

Instructions

  1. Cut the tuna into small, even cubes using a sharp knife.
  2. Finely slice the red onion and chop the chili, removing the seeds if you want less heat.
  3. In a bowl, mix the vinegar, lime juice and grated ginger.
  4. Add the tuna, onion and chili, then mix gently.
  5. Let it marinate 10 to 15 minutes in the fridge: the fish should turn opaque on the surface without fully cooking.
  6. Add the oil, adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, then serve cold.

Variations and tips

Salmon version. Replace the tuna with sushi-grade salmon, using the same marinade.
