Cooking Steps

Prepare
1

Prepare the stock. Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and cook the rice for 8 - 9 minutes, then drain and set aside. Chop some of the scallion greens into thin rings to use later as garnish and set aside. Cut the rest of the scallions into 2cm chunks. Grate the carrot and crush or mince the garlic. 

Fry the vegetables
2

Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Fry the scallions, carrot, and garlic for 4 - 6 minutes, then remove from the wok and set aside. In a bowl, combine the stock with the white wine vinegar, sugar, fish sauce* and soy sauce, along with half each of the kimchi sauce* and the Korean-style spices. Add sambal as preferred, mix well and set aside.

*Take care, these ingredients are spicy and salty! Use as preferred.

Make the sauce
3

In the same wok, heat another drizzle of sunflower oil over high heat. Fry the broccolini for 4 - 5 minutes, then deglaze with a splash of water and add the rest of the kimchi sauce. Cover and allow to stew for 4 - 5 minutes, then remove from the wok and set aside. Finely chop the coriander in the meantime.

Fry the fish
4

On a deep plate, combine two thirds of the sesame seeds with the rest of the Korean-style spices. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pat the tuna steak dry with kitchen paper, then coat with the sesame mixture. Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the tuna steak for 1 - 3 minutes per side, or longer if you'd prefer it to be less rare.

Finish
5

Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in the same wok over high heat. When the oil is nice and hot, add the rice and the sauce, mix well to combine and fry for 4 - 5 minutes over high heat, leaving it mostly undisturbed. Add the fried carrot and scallions and mix well to combine.

Serve
6

Serve the stir-fry on deep plates and garnish with the reserved scallions and the coriander. Cut the tuna steak into thin slices and serve on a separate plate, then drizzle over the sriracha mayo. Garnish the broccolini with the rest of the sesame seeds and serve on another plate.
