Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 16 Gefen Square Wontons thawed
- 3 tablespoon honey

- Lay wontons out on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with honey, spray with cooking spray, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Bake 6 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown.
- In a medium bowl, combine tuna, vinegar, cilantro, chili flakes, sesame oil, sesame seeds, olive oil, and salt. Gently stir to evenly coat.

We have a whole menu that uses the tartare as an appetizer right here, Last Minute Menu <https://www.joyofkosher.com/holidays/shabbat-menu-honey-recipes/>.
I’d love ideas for a dinner menu to go with this!
I made this and loved it, it was so easy. You could even use the same recipe with salmon if you can’t get quality tuna.
