Ingredients

  • =
  • 25g coriander
  • 2 teaspoon toasted cumin seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoon paprika

  • =

Directions

1

Blend the coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic, lemon juice, salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil for a couple of minutes. When it comes out of the blender, the mixture needs to be chunky rather than smooth. That is the chermoula.

2

Rub the chermoula over the tuna steaks evenly, and on both sides. Put the steaks in a dish and cover it. Marinade them for at least 2 hours, but turn them every 15 minutes or so.

3

Heat some olive oil in a pan until it's hot. Put the tuna steaks in there and fry for 4 minutes on each side.
