๐ Feast of the 7 Fishes Ep. 1: Spicy Tuna over Crispy Polenta ๐ ๐ผ This is my play on Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice - swapping out the rice for some crispy polenta is straight ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Polenta
-Store bought polenta, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
-Oil for frying
-Cornstarch for dusting (optional)
Tuna
-3/4 pound sushi grade tuna
-1 tbsp mayo
-1 tbsp sriracha
-1 tsp sesame oil
-4 tbsp tamari sauce
Tamari Sauce
-1/4 cup tamari
-1/4 cup mirin
-2 tbsp sugar
In a small saucepan, add all the tamari sauce ingredients over medium heat. Whisk until the sugars dissolve and the sauce reduces by half. Then set aside to cool.
Finally chop the tuna, and add the mayo, sriracha, sesame oil, and tamari sauce (if the sauce thickened too much, place it in the microwave for 10 seconds). Mix until combined, then transfer to a pastry bag and store in the fridge.
Slice the polenta, and dust with cornstarch to make it extra crispy. Then heat oil to 350ยฐ and fry for about 5 minutes or until the polenta is crisp...
