Step 1

Dice the fresh tuna into small, even pieces. Place in a bowl with the chopped jalapeño, sesame oil, ginger, salt, and pepper. Mix gently and let it chill in the refrigerator. Roughly cube the avocados and dice the cucumber. Finely chop the coriander. Combine in a bowl and drizzle with lemon or lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill in the refrigerator.

Step 2

Heat the rapeseed oil in a small saucepan to 140°C (284°F). Slice the shallots thinly using a mandolin or sharp knife. Fry the slices in the oil until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while warm.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise with chipotle paste, sambal badjak, and a few drops of lemon or lime juice. Adjust seasoning to taste. Transfer to a piping bag and refrigerate.

Step 4

Use a round ring mold to layer the tartare. Start with the avocado mix at the base, followed by the tuna tartare. Press gently to compact, then carefully remove the mold. Drizzle with chipotle mayo, sprinkle with fried shallots, black sesame seeds, and fresh coriander. Serve immediately.
