Elaboration

Ravioli

  • Cut 4 slices of loin about 3 mm thick to use as a base for the ravioli.
  • Cut the rest of the loin into small pieces and mix them with the rest of the ingredients to form the filling.
  • Add a spoonful of the mixture in the center of each base and cover with a slice of tuna on top to create the ravioli.
  • Attach with a pastry cutter and press lightly to shape.

Shiitake and nori powder

Dehydrate the shiitakes overnight at 50-60°C and shred them with the nori seaweed.

Shiitake purée

  • Chop the shiitakes, shallots, garlic and chilli.
  • In a saucepan, beat the butter and add the chopped ingredients. Deglaze with the white wine and bring to a full boil.
  • Pour in the chicken stock and reduce it to 1/3. Grind together with the peanut paste, sugar, lime juice and zest.

Coriander oil

  • Chop the coriander.
  • Heat the oil and salt to 80°C . Add the chopped coriander and blend for 10 sec. Strain quickly in a cloth strainer and cool on ice.
  • Pour the mixture into a piping bag and let stand for about 3 hours to separate the water and the oil. Reserve the extracted water.

Broccoli

  • Cut off the frontmost ends of the broccoli and set aside.
  • Cut the rest of the broccoli into very thin slices crosswise in slicer.
  • Blanch all components in very salted water for a few seconds and rinse in ice water.
