OPEN-FACED TUNA MELT SANDWICH



Open-Faced Tuna Melt Sandwich image

To take a tuna melt from good to great, it has to have all the right components. In other words, plain mayo alone won't cut it. Here's how we do it: open-faced with crusty toasted bread, melty cheese, capers, cornichons, Dijon mustard, and plenty of seasoning. On a chilly fall day, nothing tastes better.

OPEN-FACED SEARED TUNA BURGER WITH WASABI MAYONNAISE



Open-Faced Seared Tuna Burger with Wasabi Mayonnaise image

These tuna burgers are best eaten very rare, so buy your sushi-quality tuna from a reputable fishmonger. The fish should be glistening and jewel-toned, with no trace of cloudiness. Wasabi paste, or Japanese horseradish, is distinctive not only for its bright green color, but also for its head-rushing heat. Combined with a little mayonnaise and low-fat sour cream, it becomes a perfect condiment for the tuna burgers. Wasabi is available in powder form, too, and can be mixed into a paste with a little water.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds sushi-quality tuna, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 teaspoons wasabi paste
4 sourdough rolls, bottoms only

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the tuna, salt and pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, and combine gently. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, and wasabi paste. Stir to combine thoroughly and set aside.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the tuna burgers and sear for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the heat, add the soy sauce, return to the heat, and sear for 1 more minute per side.
  • Place each on the bottom half of each roll, top with a tablespoon of dressing, and serve.
