Why You’ll Love Ahi Tostadas
These are sooo good. They are super refreshing, light, easy and perfect. The Ginger Gochujang Mayo & Fried Leeks take this to a whole new level! The flavors and textures here are truly unreal.
How To Prepare Ahi Tostadas
🥑 First, make an “X” on some wonton wrapper so they don’t puff up. Then, spray some avocado oil and bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes.
🥬 Secondly, slice the leeks really thin, add to a pan and cover in avocado oil. Then, cook on high for 2 minutes and lower heat to medium low until golden. About 5-7 minutes. Let rest over a paper towel.
🍋 Then, mix together the mayo, ginger, Gochujang and a few drops of lime.
🐠 Slice the ahi real thin and marinate in the remaining lime, Tamari, sesame oil and rice vinegar for 2-3 minutes.
🥒 Lastly, spread the mayo on the tostadas, add some cucumber slices, ahi, avocado, sesame seeds, fried leeks and jalapeño slice. Serve with more lime.
