Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a sieve, a medium bowl, a small bowl, a large frying pan, a medium frying pan & a grater

Get the rice on & make the pickled radishes

  • Add the rice and boil for 30-35 mins, until cooked, then drain
  • Meanwhile, zest and halve the limes
  • Trim and thinly slice the radishes and place in the medium bowl with the juice from 1 lime and a pinch of salt. Leave to pickle

Make the sauce

  • Deseed and finely dice the chilli
  • Mix the tamari, honey, juice from the remaining lime, half the ginger & garlic paste, 2 tsp oil and half the diced chilli (to taste) in the small bowl
  • Dice the cucumber into 1cm cubes. Thinly slice the spring onions

Tuna time

  • Season the tuna chunks with salt and pepper
  • Heat the medium frying pan with 2 tsp oil on a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna and cook for 10 mins, until golden and cooked through

Build the dish

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the spring onions and remaining ginger & garlic paste, cook for 2-3 mins, then add the cooked rice and stir to combine
  • Remove from the heat, allow to cool to room temperature (optional), then mix in the lime zest along with a pinch of salt and pepper

Plate up

  • Thinly slice the avocado for garnish
  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque, and should separate easily with a fork
  • Serve the rice with cucumber, pickled radishes, avocado, rocket and tuna. Drizzle over the sauce
  • Garnish with the diced chilli (to taste) and sesame seeds
