A super quick cook cook, a very hot carbon steel pan, avacodo oil and Ahi tuna steaks seasoned with kosher salt and black pepper corns. Delightful!

Served with Bok Choy out of our garden cooked with gochuchang sauce.

Love me some very rare seared tuna, yours looks great!


Tell me more about this...
Ha! I spelled it wrong, should be gochujang, it's a fermented pepper paste in the simplest terms. Koreans put that shtuf on everything. It's potent and a bit savory with an umami flavor. If you go somewhere like H-mart or Zion Market they'll have an entire aisle dedicated to it. Usually sold in 1 to 5 gallon pails. You can find it in smaller quantities which is how we buy it. Essential for making kimchi, a fermented napa cabbage w/korean radishes. Try it, you'll like it.

I've got gochujang, just wondering how you used it with the bok choy...

Gotcha!

Blanched the bok choy, sautéed garlic and fresh ginger in a neutral oil, once fragrant added the gochujang and bok choy. A few moments later added a slurry made from soy sauce and corn starch. Continued to agitate until it reached a simmer and thickened. Remove from heat and serve.
