Fillet of tuna fish in pastry of Sesame - Secondo

Tonno in crosta di sesamo
This is a delicious Italian recipe that describes one of the best way to cook fillet of tuna: fillet of tuna needs few time to cook and it is better if it is lightly raw inside in order to maintain the fillet tender; indeed it is sufficient to cook tuna on a pan still hot and to cook each side only for 5 minutes. Here the fillet of tuna fish is completely covered with sesame that gives to the fish a crunchy consistency. Try it!
