Fried Tuna With Honey (Atun Frito Con Miel)

Fried Tuna With Honey (Atun Frito Con Miel)


1. Sprinkle tuna steaks with salt and let stand for 10 minutes.

2. Combine eggs with ground cumin, parsley flakes, and saffron and whisk together in a shallow dish.

3. Spread each side of tuna steaks with honey, dredge in flour, then dip in egg mixture.

4. Pour about 1/8 inch of olive oil into fry pan and heat over medium-high heat. Then cook to desired doneness, turning over at midpoint. The late Chef Casas suggests cooking the steaks 4--5 minutes per side. However, JMHO, a shorter cooking time, more like 2-3 minutes per side, keeps the tuna medium rare to rare.
