THE SUNBURNT TUNA

Inspired by a spicy tuna roll, this wrap can be made using more accessible (and economical) canned tuna. Don’t like the spice? Try replacing the mayo and chili sauce with a thick teriyaki sauce.

Servings

4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 2 5- ounce cans of chunk albacore tuna in water drained
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 teaspoons or, to suit taste chili sauce, such as sriracha
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup sushi rice
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar or, 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar, 2 teaspoons sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cucumber cut into spears
  • 1/2 cup carrot shreds
  • Pea shoots optional
  • Spinach tortillas

Instructions

  • 1 Prepare rice according to package directions. While still hot, sprinkle rice vinegar over rice, and toss to combine. Set aside. 2 In a small bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, chili sauce, sesame oil and onion powder. 3 Take about a quarter of the sushi rice (about a scant 1/2 a cup) and press it down onto a tortilla, as if making sushi.  (It may help to use a piece of plastic wrap for this, to prevent the rice from sticking to your fingers.) Spoon a quarter of the tuna mixture in a line, a little bit off center. Top tuna with vegetables, and roll wrap around the tuna-vegetable filling by folding up the bottom end and then rolling the wrap width-wise.
