Seared sesame tuna over a garlic seasoned cauliflower mash, sautéed veggies and arugula. Cook the cauliflower mash and keep warm. Sauté the veggies and set aside. Sear the tuna following the directions. You can use the same pan as the one used for the veggies. Smear some of the mash on the plate, slice the tuna and spread it on the mash, add the sautéed veggies and a little bit of arugula tossed in salt, pepper and oil. Beautiful and delicious dish.
