Big Eye Tuna On Wonton Crisps With Papaya Daikon Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Place a medium bowl in the refrigerator. Heat 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil in a small saucepan to 350 degrees F. Fry the wonton wrappers in batches over medium-high heat, until golden brown and crisp, 15 to 20 seconds on each side. Remove the wonton chips with tongs or a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack set over paper towels; sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
• Place the hot water in a small heatproof bowl, sprinkle in the seaweed and let it reconstitute, about 5 minutes. Rinse the seaweed under cold water. When cool enough to handle, squeeze out the excess water with your hands and let drain in a fine-mesh sieve.
• Meanwhile, cut the tuna into tidy 1/2-inch (12-millimeter) cubes and transfer to the chilled bowl to keep the raw fish cold. Add the seaweed, onion, sesame oil, chile flakes and soy sauce. Fold very gently with a large spoon, like you're folding egg whites, until the tuna poke is well combined.
• Top each wonton chip with about 2 tablespoons of the tuna poke. Garnish with the sesame seeds and scallions and serve right away.

Steps:

• Place the corn in a steamer basket set over a saucepan of simmering water. Cover and steam 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grate the lime zest into a small bowl and squeeze in 1 tablespoon lime juice. Add the sour cream, cilantro, hot sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt and mix well; set the dip aside.
• Remove the corn from the steamer basket and let cool slightly, then cut the kernels off the cobs. Combine with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl.
• Line a large baking sheet with paper towels, then arrange the wonton wrappers on top in a single layer. Place 1 teaspoon corn, 1/2 teaspoon tomato, 1/2 teaspoon avocado and 1/4 teaspoon red onion in the center of each wrapper.
• Heat about 1 1/2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees (or place a wooden skewer in the oil to test the temperature; bubbles should form around it).
• Moisten the edges of each wonton wrapper with water, then fold in half diagonally to enclose the filling and form a triangle; press gently to seal. Working in batches, lower the wontons into the hot oil with tongs and fry about 1 minute. Flip and fry another 30 seconds, or until light golden. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve with the cilantro-lime dip.

Steps:

• Heat deep-fryer to 375 degrees F or as recommended by manufacturer for similar foods. Deep fry wonton skins until golden brown and drain on paper towels.
• Combine cucumber, tomatoes, and mayonnaise in a bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Spoon a small amount on each fried wonton triangle and top with 1/4 teaspoon tobiko caviar. Finish with a parsley sprig.

Steps:

• Blend tuna caviar, olive oil, lemon and lime juice and pumpkin seed oil in a blender. Fold into that mixture the pumpkin seeds, garlic chives, tuna and salt and pepper. Reserve 4 tablespoons of dressing. Refrigerate until ready to assemble dish.
• For the Calabaza: Toss all the ingredients and bake in a preheated 400-degree oven until tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Once cooked, chill.
• For the salad: Mix all ingredients together.
• Assembly: In a 3-inch round mold, first layer the Calabaza squash. Then layer the tuna. Remove the mold and top with peppercress salad. Drizzle the remaining 4 tablespoons of caviar dressing on the plate.
