If you like Sashimi, I'm sure you will like Umai too. I made this yesterday for lunch after returning from fish market while the fish was still fresh. I was thrilled to find a huge tuna weighted about 20kg and after much persuasion the fishmonger agreed to sell half to me instead of the whole fish and better still, I managed to get the tail end.
Below is the fishmonger was helping me to slice the fish:
I enjoyed it so much that I had two plates of rice....hehe. This was the best umai I ever made becuase the fish was so sweet & the flesh was very soft. It was the fishmonger who gave me the idea to try umai with this tuna.
I've posted Umai recipe earlier on but herewith a slightly different version. You can see the earlier version using different type of fish in here.
