Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Seared Tuna Sashimi and Avocado

In this episode, we'll be working with nutritious tuna, popular worldwide, and avocado, known as a great antioxidant, to make a delicious Japanese-style carpaccio dish. For our side dish, we'll be making udon noodles topped with stir-fried pork belly and Chinese chives, and a soup made with ago or flying fish for the perfect finishing touch on the flavor. We'll also learn how to make a simple yet delicious Japanese-style mushroom stir-fry by briefly sautéing thick-cut mushrooms in butter and seasoning them with wasabi and soy sauce.
