Ingredients:

  1. 4 - russet potatoes, cubed
  2. 1 - tablespoon wasabi* (See Cook\'s Note)
  3. 1/4 - cup soy milk
  4. 1/2 - cup mirin wine
  5. 4 tablespoons - low-sodium tamari soy sauce
  6. 2 tablespoons - honey
  7. 2 teaspoons - toasted sesame oil
  8. 4 cloves - garlic, crushed
  9. 4 - knobs fresh ginger, peeled
  10. 4 - yellowfin sushi-grade tuna steaks, cut 1-inch thick
  11. 1/4 - cup freshly ground black pepper
  12. 4 tablespoons - canola oil

Directions:

To make the wasabi smashed potatoes:
Boil the potatoes in salt water until fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and place in a big bowl. Add the wasabi, soy milk, salt, and pepper and smash together. Don't over-mash.

To make the teriyaki sauce:
Heat a saucepan on medium, add the mirin, tamari, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger, bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain the sauce to remove the garlic and ginger.

To make the pepper-crusted tuna steak:
Coat the tuna steaks evenly on all sides with freshly-ground black pepper. In a frying pan, heat the canola oil on high heat until smoking. Place the tuna steaks in the frying pan and baste with the teriyaki sauce. For medium-rare steak: cook for 1 minute, flip and cook for another minute.
Slice the tuna against the grain to sever the muscle, making tuna even more tender. Serve with a generous scoop of wasabi smashed potatoes. Drizzle the teriyaki sauce over both.
