Ingredients

  • vegetable oil, for frying

  • 25 wonton wrappers, cut in half diagonally

  • 3 tablespoons Kewpie Japanese mayonnaise

  • 1 teaspoon wasabi paste

  • ½ pound sushi grade ahi tuna

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

  • 1 avocado, diced

  • 1 jalapeño, sliced

  • 1 tablespoon sriracha

  • ½ teaspoon furikake flakes

  • 2 tablespoons green onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 tablespoons black and white sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. In a deep-fryer or large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, add enough vegetable oil to fill about an inch deep in the pan. Heat oil to 350° F. Add 25 halved wonton wrappers to the skillet and fry on both sides, about 30 seconds on each side. Remove wontons and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Continue until all of the wonton wrappers have been fried. Set aside.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise and wasabi paste together until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

  3. Slice raw tuna into 1-inch cubes. Add to medium sized bowl and season with salt and soy sauce.

  4. Spread the wonton chips out onto a large platter. Top with the tuna, avocado and jalapeño.

  5. Drizzle chips with wasabi mayonnaise and sriracha, then top with the furikake, green onion and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
