asda tuna steaks....

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

ok. i apologise for the sheer POTENTIAL stupidity of this question, but...

i bought a packaged tuna steak in asda from the shelf. and today im going to cook it. BUT it dosent say HOW to cook the damn thing. i ASSUME i have to fry it or grill it...but it all seems very odd that its just in a packet, not meant to be stored in the fridge, and has no cooking instructions on it.

HELP innit x

Or go Jap and have the bugger raw with some Wasabi sauce!

Grill it the way you would a steak. Medium heat - four or five minutes each side should be PLENTY. Suggest sprinkling a little dill and lime juice over it before you slam it under the grill.

You can shallow fry it in a smidge of butter (or garlic butter), but I prefer grilling.

same rules as a steak innit, medium hot pan , not long each side , want it a bit pink in the middle

fantastic. im rather looking forward to this. sadly being skint i dont have the lemon but i do have some mediteranian cous cous and a beef tomato which i might STUFF. YUMMERS

 

[who me?]

lightly oil a frying pan and get it bloody hot ,chuck in the tuna and fry both sides,you can split the steak easily if you want to check its cooked through but if its a nice toasty colour it will be fine.
chuck some sugarsnap peas and cherry tomatoes in the pan and serve with cous-cous

[Scotty Mac]

stick it in a george foreman grill - you can cook ANYTHING in those things

 

[csider]

Thick base pan, high heat, little olive oil with lemon & lime, quick fry for min or two on each side depending how seared you want it.

 

[Woodchip]

I'm sure Guiness Dave will help you cook it. I've heard he's ace in the kitchen.

 

[tedebear]

Hope its fresh fresh freshety fresh....otherwise you won't want to serve it too rare...

Anything? How many minutes each side for a Black & Decker Workmate?

Lemon is 19p and lime is 15p in Asda.

Please stop with all the recipes.

The best we've got at work is a TUC biscuit and some stale sandwiches.

You're all making me HUNGRY!

When was the last time you COOKED a Workmate?

I don't think that is QUITE true.

I've never been able to -- usually I have to eat them raw....

Obviously, that's because I've never owned a George Foreman grill.

I had a lightly pan fried tuna steak for my lunch, green leaf salad tossed in a lime juice dressing, and garlic fried sauted potatoes. Yum bloody yum,

Good catering on this job !
