Ingredients (Serves 4)

• 4 tuna steaks
• ½ tsp finely grated lime rind
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• pepper
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• fresh coriander, to garnish
• avocado relish, tomato and lime wedges, to serve

1. Trim the skin from the tuna steaks, rinse and pat dry on absorbent kitchen paper.
2. To make the avocado relish, peel and remove the stone from one small ripe avocado. Toss in 1 tbsp lime juice. Mix in 1 tbsp freshly chopped coriander and 1 small finely chopped red onion. Stir in some chopped fresh mango or a chopped medium tomato and season well.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the lime rind, garlic, olive oil, cumin, ground coriander and pepper to make a paste.
4. Spread the paste thinly on both sides of the tuna. Heat a non-stick, ridged frying pan until hot and press the tuna steaks into the pan to seal them. Lower the heat and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the fish over and cook for a further 4 to 5 minutes until the fish is cooked through. Drain on absorbent kitchen paper and transfer to a serving plate.
5. Sprinkle the lime juice and chopped coriander over the fish.
6. Serve with freshly made avocado relish, lime wedges and tomatoes.
