With the air fryer, you can prepare it in no time while keeping the fish tender and its flavors beautifully concentrated. \n\n\n\nFor another fish recipe, try my air fryer salmon fillet\n\n\n\nTips for perfectly cooked tuna\n\n\n\nAdjust the cooking time to your preferred texture\n\n\n\nIf you like your tuna pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes at 200 \u00b0C is enough. For a slightly more cooked result, leave it in for up to 6 minutes. Keep a close eye on it so the fish doesn’t dry out.\n\n\n\nCraving a quick dessert? Try the air fryer egg custard\n\n\n\nShorten or extend the marinating time\n\n\n\nAllowing the tuna to marinate for an hour is ideal, as it gives the fish time to soak up all the flavors. If you’re short on time, however, about 30 minutes will do. The longer it marinates, the more pronounced the aromas will be.\n\n\n\nUse parchment paper carefully\n\n\n\nWhen you place the tuna on a sheet of parchment paper in the air fryer, make sure the paper does not touch the heating elements. This prevents scorching and ensures the hot air can circulate properly around the fish.\n\n\n\nOr even air fryer cookies\n\n\n\nKey ingredients for air fryer tuna tataki\n\n\n\nThe light soy sauce: a salty soy sauce available in most grocery stores\n\n\n\nThe sesame oil: adds a delicious nutty flavor\n\n\n\nA recipe contributed by Xavier Burton, moderator of the site’s official Facebook group\n\n\n\n\n\n\tAir Fryer Tuna Tataki\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\n\t\tair fryer\t\n\t\n\t\tFor the marinade1 tablespoon ginger (grated)2 tablespoons light soy sauce1 tablespoon sesame oiljuice of 0.5 limeFor the tataki1 tuna steak2 tablespoons sesame seeds\t\n\t\n\t\tWhisk together the ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice to make the marinade.Place the tuna steak in the marinade and let it marinate for 1 hour.Place the tuna steak on a sheet of parchment paper.Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the tuna.Cook in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 200\u00b0C.\t\n\t\n\t\tWarning: make sure the parchment paper is not too large and that the edges do not touch your appliance\u2019s heating elements, or it may burn.\n\t\n\t\n\t\tPlat principalJaponaise","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132598","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132598"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132598\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/marcwiner.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
