Seared Tuna with Cauliflower Tabouli

This is a fantastic, quick and easy weeknight dinner. Clean flavours with fresh seasonal ingredients.

3 cups cauliflower - grated

1 cucumber - seeds removed and diced into 1cm pieces

1 yellow or red pepper seeds removed and diced

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

salt and pepper to season

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes quartered

1 tsp fresh chopped chilli (optional)

In a food processor add the mint, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice and blend. Process until the mint is finely pureed, season with salt and pepper.

Mix together the grated cauliflower, diced cucumber, peppers and season with salt and pepper. Pour your dressing over your Tabouli and mix to incorporate.

Heat a large frying pan with a small amount of olive oil. Season your tuna generously with salt and pepper and sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Place the tuna in the frying pan and cook on one side for 2-3 minutes before turning and cooking for a further 2-3 minutes on the other side. Cooking time will depend on how you like your tuna cooked.

Mix all the salsa ingredients together in a small bowl. Add the chili, salt and pepper to taste.

Serve your tuna alongside your Tabouli topped with your fresh salsa.
