Ingredients

500

ml

finely diced tuna
1

bunch spring onions
45

ml

grated daikon (optional)
5

ml

minced ginger
30

ml

light soy sauce
15

ml

mirin
3

ml

wasabi paste
chives, with flowers if possible
fine green beans
flat leaf Italian parsley

Method

Gently mix tuna, spring onion and daikon together and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix ginger, soy, mirin and wasabi together.
Stir mixture into tuna and mix well.
Adjust flavour according to taste.
Place rice paper in a bowl of water.
Allow to stand for a few minutes to soften.
Place a tablespoon or so of the mixture along the side of the rice paper nearest you.
Top with a chive, so that the chive is poking out of the top of the paper.
Begin to roll from this end, folding in the side edges after the first roll.
Place a bean and a sprig of parsley onto the rolled paper and continue to roll until you have a package.
Place the roll, seam-side-down and continue until the mixture is finished.
Serve as a starter with extra soy sauce for dipping.
