Sashimi with Wasabi is a fresh and vibrant Japanese seafood dish that showcases the delicate flavors of high-quality fish, paired with the sharp kick of wasabi. This Paleo-friendly dish is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients, making it a perfect choice for health-conscious diners.

Ingredients

• Fresh sushi-grade salmon - 150 grams
• Fresh sushi-grade tuna - 150 grams
• Wasabi paste - 1 teaspoon
• Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for Paleo) - 2 tablespoons
• Lemon - 1, juiced
• Sea salt - to taste
• Microgreens or daikon radish (for garnish) - a handful

Steps

1. Start by placing the sushi-grade salmon and tuna in the freezer for about 15 minutes to make slicing easier.
2. Remove the fish from the freezer and slice the salmon and tuna into thin, even sashimi pieces, about 1/4 inch thick.
3. Arrange the slices of salmon and tuna on a chilled plate in a visually appealing manner.
4. In a small bowl, mix the wasabi paste with a little water to create a smooth, spreadable consistency.
5. Serve the sashimi with a small dollop of wasabi and a side of soy sauce or coconut aminos for dipping.
6. Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the sashimi and sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
7. Garnish with microgreens or thinly sliced daikon radish for a fresh touch.
