Tuna Tiradito
Ingredients
Method
method:
1) Start by making squares out of the watermelon and reserve.
2) Extract the juice from one beetroot by blending and then passing through a sieve. Rest watermelon in the beetroot juice and allow to ‘marinate.’
3) Mix soy, orange juice, and lime. Slice the tuna in ‘tiradito style’ and place in mixture for 2 minutes for a quick marinade.
4) Assemble all elements in harmonious way and finalize with the maiz morado. Enhance your presentation with splashes of the silver powder mixed with water.
