Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 180 g all purpose flour
  • ¾ tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp pork lard
  • ½ cup warm water
Mix the flour and salt, rub in the lard by hand, add the warm water half at a time.
Knead into a smooth dough ball, five to eight minutes.
Bag the dough and rest half an hour to an hour.
Tear off a small ball and press out to about a seven-inch circle; rest a few minutes.
Brush a griddle with lard over medium-high heat; cook each tortilla 45 seconds per side, until bubbles rise. Keep wrapped in a towel.
  • 2 whole egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp anchovy paste
  • ¼ tsp soy sauce
Blend the egg yolks, white wine vinegar, lemon juice, anchovy paste and soy sauce.
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper
With the machine running, stream in the vegetable oil slowly, then the extra virgin olive oil, until emulsified and thick; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a squeeze bottle; keeps up to five days in the fridge.
  • red onion
  • jalapeno pepper
  • cherry tomatoes
  • Kalamata olives
  • 10 oz sushi grade tuna
Thinly slice the red onion and jalapeno (seeds removed), quarter the cherry tomatoes, pit the olives.
  • barbecued sweet eel sauce
Slice the tuna very thin against the grain.
  • olive oil
Brush each side of the tortilla lightly with olive oil and brush the grill pan.
Eel sauce as the pizza sauce
Grill over medium heat 1 to 2 minutes, flipping constantly, until crisp; rotate 90 degrees and repeat.
Grilling with the eel sauce already on burns it; grill the oiled tortilla crisp first, then brush the eel sauce on as the pizza sauce.
  • cilantro
Arrange the tuna slices overlapping, scatter jalapeno, red onion, cherry tomatoes and olives sparingly, drizzle the anchovy aioli, finish with cilantro leaves.
