Ingredients

  • 1 pound (454 g) tuna, chopped into small pieces
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) chili sauce, adjust to taste
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml) sesame oil
  • juice of 1/2 lime
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) kewpie mayonnaise
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons (23 ml) chili sauce
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (8 ml) red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) lemon juice
  • egg roll wrappers or wonton wrappers
  • vegetable oil, for frying
  • sea salt, optional
  • avocado
  • sesame seeds
  • teriyaki sauce
  • cilantro
  • jalapenos, for more spice
  • green onions


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the chopped tuna with chili sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice. Stir until well mixed.
  2. For the spicy mayo, blend mayonnaise, chili sauce, red pepper flakes, sesame oil, sugar, and lemon juice in a small bowl until you achieve a smooth texture. Set aside.
  3. Fill a deep pan with vegetable oil, about 1 to 2 inches high, and heat until the temperature reaches between 325°F and 350°F.
  4. As the oil is heating, slice the egg roll or wonton wrappers into triangle shapes resembling tortilla chips.
  5. Once the oil is ready, fry the wonton triangles in small groups to avoid overcrowding.
  6. When the chips turn golden and bubbly, remove them from the oil and let them drain on a wire rack. Continue this process with the remaining chips.
  7. If desired, sprinkle some sea salt over the wonton chips, then proceed to assemble the dish.
  8. Layer the chips in a serving bowl or tray, followed by the tuna, spicy mayo, teriyaki sauce, avocado, cilantro, sesame seeds, green onions, and jalapenos. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Bake the wonton triangles in the oven for a healthier alternative to frying.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the dish for a zesty citrus kick.
  • Adjust the amount of chili sauce and jalapenos to customize the spice level to your liking.
