This time we want to show you a new recipe of one of our most requested dishes. It is the tuna Nikkei ceviche.
Due to the current circumstance by which we all must be at home, we will take the opportunity to show you how to prepare another dish of Qapaq restaurant menu and thus make you more bearable the confinement.
For this dish you can use any of the types of tuna you can find in the market.
Luckily, here in Tenerife we have tuna, practically all year round as it's a transit area for them.
This time we will do it with bluefin tuna, which is the most sought after of all, but as I indicated before, any type of fresh tuna is valid and the result will be really tasty.
Below I detail the necessary ingredients and how to prepare it.
The ingredients correspond to those needed for 1 person.

Add salt and pepper and mix all ingredients well.
Then put it on the plate along with the rest of the ingredients, such as corn, avocado, sweet potato & Nori seaweed.
