  • 150g Dinko Southern Bluefin Tuna portion, slightly frozen.
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried hot pepper flakes
  • 1 large cucumber, seeded and diced

Method

1 Pat Southern Bluefin Tuna dry before slicing the tuna into small cubes. Cover and place in fridge

2 In a bowl, whisk together the honey, oil, vinegar, basil and pepper. Add the cucumber. Season with salt and pepper. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
