Ingredients

2 shallots, finely chopped
400g fresh tuna loins
Taco kit (includes seasoning and tortillas)
2 cups coleslaw
Juice of 1 lemon
Garlic aioli (for topping)
Salsa (from taco kit)
1 avocado, sliced
2 shallots, thinly sliced

Method

Finely chop 2 of the shallots and place them in a bowl. Add the cooked tuna and seasoning from the taco kit. Toss to combine. In a separate bowl, mix the coleslaw with lemon juice and season to taste.
Heat a small frying pan over medium heat. Cook the tortillas from the taco kit for about 20 seconds on each side until lightly browned.
Thinly slice the remaining 2 shallots. Divide the coleslaw mixture among the tortillas. Top each tortilla with the tuna mixture, garlic aioli, salsa from the taco kit, avocado, and sliced shallot. Serve the tacos with lemon wedges on the side.

Chef's Tip

Fresh tuna tacos are best when the fish is cooked hot and fast, keeping the center tender and slightly pink while adding light caramelisation on the outside. Crisp slaw, creamy avocado, and bright lemon help balance the richness of the tuna, creating a fresh, vibrant seafood dish packed with texture and flavour.
