Honey Soy Tuna, Edamame Bean & Brown Rice Salad
Ingredients: Serves 4
500 grams of cooked brown rice or use 2 Sun Rice microwavable pouches if you are time poor
250 grams of tuna steaks
½ a cup of tamari sauce
2 tbl of honey
3 tbl of sesame oil
100 grams of ripe but firm avocado (about ½ a large one)
1 punnet of cherry tomatoes
4 handfuls of chopped baby spinach
1 red onion
2 cups of Frozen Hanabi Edamame Beans in their pods
2 tbl of sesame seeds for a garnish
Method:
Cook the brown rice and place in a bowl.
Get a pan hot and add ½ a tbl of the sesame oil. Sear the tuna steaks for 1 minute on each side so that they are still rare. Remove from the heat and dice. Place in a mixing bowl.
Whisk up the remaining sesame oil with the honey and the tamari sauce. Tip: You might need to soften the honey first using hot water or in the microwave.
Pour the dressing over the tuna and stir.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in quarters, dice the onion finely, dice the avo into cubes and roughly chop the spinach.
Place the edamame beans in a glass microwavable jug with 100ml of water and microwave for 4 minutes on high. Then remove the beans from their pods and discard the pods.
Mix the prepped veg through the rice.
Add the tuna and dressing and mix again.
Season with sea salt and stir again.
Serve with sesame seeds on top and enjoy the nourishing dish that makes your cells sing!
