To make the tuna tartare, dice the tuna into small, uniform pieces and place it in a mixing bowl. Peel and remove the seeds of the mangosteens. Place the flesh in the bowl along with the tuna. Finely dice the cucumber. Chop the red onion and herbs. Place the cucumber, onion and herbs in the bowl with the tuna mixture.

2

To make the dressing, whisk together the soya sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar and honey (or agave syrup) in a small bowl. Adjust the sweetness and acidity to your liking.

Pour the dressing over the tuna mixture. Gently toss to combine, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the tartare for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the flavours to combine.
