Fight the January blues with this fresh recipe from our chef for you to try and home. Having joined us from renowned Sushisamba, our Executive Chef, Mark, is a master in fusion flavours. He shares his bright and zingy recipe of melt-in-your-mouth hamachi tuna tiradito – which blends the Japanese sashimi with Peruvian ceviche – for a mouthwatering result finished with citrus ponzu and fragrant tarragon.
First create the ponzu and the tarragon emulsion, then follow his plating method for this fun fusion delight. Make sure you use daily fresh Hamachi fish, and take the skin off the fish just before slicing and serving.

Garnish with small tarragon leaves.
