  Delicious! I like sushi and raw fish, so this starter snack is perfect for me. Also good with sushi pickled ginger instead of normal ginger, and a dash of soya sauce is good with it too.

  This worked well as a starter - the tartare served in larger patties with a few salad leaves and the vodka creme fraiche from this recipe: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/4981/smoked-salmon-with-beetroot-and-vodka-crme-frache I used a little more tuna in relation to the other ingredients, but otherwise stuck to the recipe as described.
