Ingredients

2 tuna steaks
3 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of drained capers
a good splash of lemon juice
1 chopped and deseeded tomato

Method

Take the tuna steaks, brush with olive oil, season, and cook on a griddle pan for 3-4 minutes each side, until just tender but still slightly pink in the middle.
Meanwhile, in a small pan heat the olive oil with the drained capers, a good splash of lemon juice, the tomato, harissa and chopped coriander. Serve warmed through over the cooked steaks.
