Ingredients

(the sauce)

1 tsp wasabi powder

1 tsp water

1 TBS rice vinegar (cider vinegar or white vinegar will do, in a pinch)

2 TBS mayonnaise

1 clove fresh garlic, minced

about 4-5 drops pepper-flavored sesame oil (optional)

(the tuna)

2 yellowfin tuna steaks, about 1/2-pound each

1 TBS soy sauce

1 TBS vegetable oil

1/2 tsp wasabi powder

another 4-5 drops pepper-flavored sesame oil (optional)

Directions

(the sauce) In a small bowl, mix the wasabi powder with the water. Make sure to mix thoroughly, to form a thin paste. In a larger bowl, mix the remaining sauce ingredients, then add the wasabi/water paste. When everything's incorporated, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and refrigerate. Allow 30 minutes or so for the flavors to blend.

Preheat grill or broiler.

In a small bowl, combine all tuna dressing ingredients (except for the tuna itself). Brush the prepared dressing liberally onto both sides of each tuna steak.

Put the steaks onto a hot grill (or under a preheated broiler), and allow them to took on one side for at least 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, flip the steaks and cook for another 2 minutes. Preferably, the tuna should be somewhat rare in the center.

Plate the tuna, and drizzle liberally with the wasabi mayonnaise.
