One of my favorite places for a delicious lunch and a glass of wine in LA is Zinque. Number one on their menu, in my opinion, is their tuna tartare tartine. Fresh ahi tuna is mixed with salt & vinegar chips for the most scrumptious lunch to sink your teeth into. This homemade version is just as tasty and oh so good!
Add garlic and nuts to food processor or mini chopper. Pulse until finely ground. Add basil leaves. With processor running, stream in olive oil until combined. Gently stir in cheese, salt, pepper, and sugar. (makes about ⅓ cup)
Tuna Tartare Tartine
Lightly toasts slices of bread. Let cool momentarily. Cut into 2 or 3 pieces.
Meanwhile combine chopped tuna with pesto, oil, and chips. Top toasts with tuna mixture. Enjoy immediately.
