Ingredients (serves 4)

100 g of fresh red tuna steak with about 1 cm thick, 100 g of white tuna steak ( or swordfish) costs about 1 cm thick, and the zest of an orange, a lemon and a lime untreated, 100 ml oil Grapeseed, 4 juniper berries, coriander seeds 4, 4 black peppercorns, 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon poppy seeds blue, 1 large raw beetroot, 1 Granny Smith apple Smith 1 small stalk celery (or, failing that, a large pinch of celery salt), 1 sprig of tarragon, 1 star anise, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar apple balsamic (or cider vinegar) sea salt

Procedure

Nothing could be easier in a jiffy!

The day (H-30) , prepare an oil flavored with citrus marinade. Pour the grapeseed oil in a jar or a jar that you can close tightly. Mash lightly with fingers of juniper berries, coriander seeds and black pepper and put them in oil. Immerse the bottle or jar of oil in a pan of hot water to heat the oil slightly and accelerate the infusion of flavors. Take the zest for the orange, lemon and lime. Add the oil. Mix gently. Remove the jar or pot in pan of hot water, seal and place in the dark. Forget your oil overnight.

The same day H-5, prepare the tuna and beet. Rinse the tuna steaks in white and red-cold water, wipe them gently, then cut them one after the other in a cubic centimeter on one, without mixing. In a bowl, put the cubes of bluefin tuna marinated with citrus oil, sesame seeds and a pinch of salt. Mix gently and set aside to cool. In a small skillet, heat one tablespoon oil flavored with citrus and brown the cubes of white tuna for 2 minutes. Off the heat, season lightly with fleur salt and sprinkle the diced poppy seeds. Keep cool.

Peel beets. Using a melon baller, collect balls of raw beetroot. In a saucepan, place the ball with a little water, 2 tablespoons olive oil, star anise and the stem of tarragon. Wash, peel and cut into strips with a length of 4 cm a small stalk of celery. Add the slices in the pan. Lightly salt to sea salt or, if you did not use celery, add salt instead of celery. Bring to a boil, cover and let simmer for 45 to 50 minutes. Check there are always some water in the pan and will serve to achieve a vinaigrette. Take the opportunity to try cooking beets: the blade of a knife should be able to dip into it without difficulty. Once cooked, drain the balls of canned beets well the cooking juices. Book balls and juices cool.

Wash and dry the skin of Granny Smith apple. Cut into four, then clearly the center slice of each shift to remove the tail and heart. Cut each quarter into four again. Rub with half a lemon to prevent oxidation, then place in the fridge.

Fifteen minutes before serving , get your ingredients the refrigerator. Prepare a dressing with the juice of beet and apple balsamic vinegar. In one or more plates have round, arrange the apple slices in a rosette making sure to leave a space at the center of the plate. Decorate with beads of sugar beet. At the center of each plate, place a few pieces of bluefin tuna and albacore tuna marinated. Drizzle everything with the vinaigrette. Garnish with orange zest and lemon use in the marinade. Serve immediately. Your guests will bite the cubes of tuna, logs beet and apple aperitifs with peaks.

Note:
- The "ball game" reproduced by little thing about the recipe of the same name by Michel Bras, currently available on its website, it is a recipe which he proposes to carry children. And since I'm still a big kid ...
- Recipe for Marinated Tuna is simply inspired by Roellinger.

soon,
