Techniques
Cut the tuna into pieces a little smaller than half an inch and finely chop the white onion.
- 1 whole white onion
Put the fish in a stainless steel or glass bowl, not one that could react with the acid, and put the onion on top.
- 1 lb albacore tuna
- 1 cup fresh lime
Pour on enough fresh lime juice for the fish to float freely and mix in the onion.
When the fish turns pale, tip off the lime juice, leaving a couple of tablespoons to season the dish; move to a bigger bowl.
- green chili
- cilantro
- cherry tomatoes
- green olives
Chop the green chili, cilantro and cherry tomatoes; add with the green olives and stir together.
- 1½ tsp diamond crystal salt
- 2 tsp sugar
Taste, then add salt until it balances the lime, stirring until dissolved; add sugar if wanted.
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- tostadas, chips or frying tortillas
Stir in a couple of tablespoons of olive oil for creaminess and taste a final time.
Olive oil for creaminess
For fancy tostadas, cut long triangles from a frying tortilla and fry, pushing them down in the oil to cup them.
