Author Notes: Whatever you do, do not use a food processor to cut the tuna.  You want it to be chopped, not ground!
Ingredients: 1 1/2 pounds yellowfin tuna, finely chopped by hand
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons finely chopped basil leaves
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lime, quartered
red onion rings and greens for serving, optional
Instructions: Place the tuna, mustard, basil, garlic, ginger and pepper in a large mixing bowl and toss gently to combine.

Place the flour and salt on a large plate.  Divide the tuna mixture into 4 patties and dredge them in the mixture.  Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours.

Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and when it is hot, add the oil.  Add the patties and cook until rare on the inside and well browned ont he outside, 3 to 4 minutes on each side.  Serve immediately garnished with the lime quarters and red onion rings and greens, if desired.
