Instruções

Start by baking/cooking the sweet potatoes. Either baking them on 200 degrees in the oven until soft or boiling/steaming them until soft. I prefer to bake them in the oven.

When the sweet potatoes are soft and ready take them out of the oven or drain from the water and let them cool for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile preheat two grill pans over medium/high heat. One with some sesame oil and one with olive oil.

Add the zucchini to the pan with olive oil and fry for 2-3 minutes until grill marks start to appear. Add the tomatoes and fry the tomatoes for 1 minute on each side and the zucchini for another 2-3 minutes on the other. Then turn off the heat.

Peel the sweet potatoes and add all the spices. Mix using a hand mixer until smooth.

Season the tuna steaks with salt and cover in sesame seeds.

Add to the pan with sesame oil and fry for 1-2 minutes on each side (depending on how raw you prefer your steak).

Place the sweet potato mash on two plates.

Slice the tuna steaks and place on top of the potato mash.

Add grilled vegetables on the side.
