Ingredients

2 tablespoons wasabi powder (horseradish powder)*

1½ tablespoons water

½ cup mayonnaise

1 pound fresh tuna steaks, cut into ¾-inch cubes

2 ½ tablespoons soy sauce

28 large slices pickled ginger*

28 8-inch wooden skewers

1 bunch watercress

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon sesame oil

handful of sesame seeds

Directions

Mix 2 tablespoons wasabi powder and 1½ tablespoons water in small bowl to blend. Whisk in ½ cup mayonnaise. Cover wasabi mayonnaise and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

Combine tuna and soy sauce in medium bowl; toss to coat. Marinate tuna 30 minutes at room temperature, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, thread 1 ginger slice onto each skewer 2 inches from tip. Line platter with watercress. Place bowl of wasabi mayonnaise on platter. Drain tuna; pat dry. Return to medium bowl. Sprinkle with pepper and sesame seeds; toss to coat.

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna and sear until browned on all sides but still pink inside, about 2 minutes total. Thread 1 tuna cube onto each prepared skewer next to ginger. Arrange skewers on platter and serve.

*Available at Japanese markets and specialty foods stores and in the Asian foods section of some supermarkets.
