Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 small red onion, minced
1/2 jalapeno , seeds removed, minced
1 medium cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
1 fresh garlic clove, crushed
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
1 tbsp red bell pepper, minced
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 pinch salt and pepper
2 tsp sugar
1 lb yellowfin tuna fillet, loin
1 tbsp finely chopped scallion
1 tbsp freshly grated gingerroot
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 tsp soy sauce
fresh ground black pepper
peanut oil (for frying )
wasabi powder
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
4 leaves bibb lettuce
4 hamburger buns or 4 other soft rolls

Directions:

Cucumbers:.
Combine all cucumber ingredients in a sealable plastic storage container. Chill for two hours.
Tuna Burgers:.
Remove any sinew from the tuna and chop into fine dice. Add the scallions, ginger, mustard, soy sauce and pepper and blend thoroughly. Do not over mix. Form into 4 equal portions and make patties. Chill for 1 hour.
While the tuna patties are chilling, mix the wasabi powder with just enough water to make a paste. Allow to sit for 20 minutes. Add it to the mayonnaise and lime juice and chill.
Heat a skillet and add about 2 tablespoons of the peanut oil. Cook the tuna burgers until just done, about 4 minutes per side.
Place a piece of lettuce on the bottom of each bun and top with a few slices of cucumbers. Top with tuna burger. Then top with the bun top which has been spread liberally with Wasabi Mayonnaise. Serve with the remaining Thai Style Cucumbers on the side.
The preparation time does not include the chilling time.
