This is one of our favorite ways to have fresh ahi. I usually add a little more wasabi - but then we love that stuff, lol. I also cook it less time than recommended here because we like it that way and I usually add some sesame seeds as garnish.

We made this a couple of nights ago for dinner and really enjoyed it. It was easy to prepare and had great flavor. I used a little more sesame oil as I realized I was out of peanut oil and skipped the radish sprouts--otherwise I followed all ingredients/directions as posted. It had a very pretty presentation. I would not skip the cuke--I enjoyed the cool flavor in contrast to the heat. I will definitely make this again.

A sophisticated delight. Warning to fledgling wasabi-users like me: I added 3 T of wasabi paste instead of the powdered form...talk about an antihistamine meal! Next time I'll use just a dab so as not to overwhelm the other delicate ingredients. Worked beautifully halved and the cooking time is perfect. Thanks for a wonderful way to prepare this important and healthy fish.

Great recipe! I didn't have cucumber but made the sauce as listed for two tuna steaks. Do try this great recipe. Both quick and delicious.
