Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 1-2 minutes
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
6 small ahi tuna steaks
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon honey
Bulgur Wheat Salad:
1 cup dry bulgur wheat
1 red onion, diced
1 red capsicum (pepper), diced
6 radishes, diced
1 can Canellini beans, drained and washed
Bunch of coriander, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
½ lemon, juiced

Method:
-
Cut the tuna steaks into small chunks and marinate with the soy sauce, garlic and honey. Set aside and rest for a couple of hours.
-
Pour 1 ½ cups of boiling water over the bulgur wheat, cover with a lid and leave until all the water is absorbed (about ½ hour).

Add the onion, capsicum, beans and coriander to the bulgur wheat and season with olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, salt & pepper. Mix until combined. (Alternatively, you can also use cucumbers, tomatoes, chickpeas, parsley, mint etc.)
