Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3/4 pound sashimi grade tuna
2 tablespoons good quality mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Vietnamese garlic-chili sauce
2 tablespoon chopped green onion, white and green parts
2 teaspoons tobiko (flying fish roe)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Peanut oil, for frying
18 (3-inch-square) wonton skins
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons wasabi paste
2 teaspoons ground toasted sesame seeds
1 bunch radish sprouts
8 shiso leaves
1/4 pound smoked salmon, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sliced pickled ginger, for garnish
1 tablespoon tobiko (flying fish roe), for garnish

Steps:

  • Cut 1/4 pound of the tuna against the grain into 12 thin slices. Finely chop the other 1/2 pound for the tartare.
  • To prepare the tartare base, combine all the ingredients and mix well. Add the chopped fish and stir lightly to combine.
  • To prepare the crispy wontons, in a saucepan, pour in the oil to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 375 degrees. Add the wonton skins and fry, turning once, for 8 to10 seconds on each side, until light golden brown. Keep the wontons flat by using tongs to uncurl them. Using a wire skimmer, transfer to paper towels to drain. Allow to cool.
  • In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the dressing and mix well.
  • To assemble, first roll the tuna slices up into rose-shaped bundles. Reserving 2 tablespoons of the radish sprouts, stack in the following order: wonton skin, 1/6 of the tartare mixture, shiso leaf, wonton skin, 1/6 of the smoked salmon, radish sprouts, wonton skin, 2 tuna rolls.
  • Sprinkle the top of the each napoleon with the reserved radish sprouts. Drizzle 3 tablespoons of the dressing around each plate. Garnish with pickled ginger and tobiko.
  • To serve, cut through the entire stack with a knife, and smash the layers together with a fork to blend the flavors.
