Myke's New Recipe: Ahi Tuna Sliders

Myke made an awesome dinner tonight! His creation is called:
Ahi Tuna Sliders: mini tuna burgers with wasabi sauce and ginger slaw on sweet Hawaiian rolls


Myke's recipe:

1 lb sushi grade Ahi Tuna
sesame oil
1 package Hawaiian sweet rolls
1 package precut cabbage/ slaw
ginger dressing
wasabi sauce

Directions:
toss the slaw in the ginger dressing and let sit during the rest of the prep
cut tuna into slider sizes to fit the rolls
cook tuna medium rare or rare in sesame oil
put wasabi sauce on one side of the rolls
put slaw on other side of the rolls
assemble sliders, eat, and enjoy!

Total prep and cooking time: 20 minutes.
Makes dinner for two or great party snacks!

Recommended side: sweet potato fries!

He modified a Rachael Ray recipe: http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/asian-tuna-sliders/

Editor's note: Ok, I feel obligated to add a note that I arranged the plate and took the picture. Myke is a little upset because he says if he knew I was going to post this, he would have made it look nicer and painted the plate, etc. So, if it looks bad, it's my fault - it tasted great! : )

Questions:

1. Where in the heck did you find sushi grade tuna?

2. Where in the heck did you find GOOD ginger dressing?

I'd love to try the recipe.

BTW, tell Myke it's okay that you posted the pic. WE non-cooking FCC moms have to get credit for doing something in the kitchen. Most of us don't cook. Besides, I can't see the pic of his yummy sounding dinner.
