Method:

Place tuna chunks in a shallow dish. Mix garlic, ginger, citrus juices, sugar and fish sauce together and pour over tuna. Leave to marinate for about 2 hours.
Meanwhile, blend dipping sauce ingredients together and set aside.
Using a potato peeler, shave long ribbons off cucumber and cut in half. Drain tuna. Wrap a piece of tuna in a cucumber ribbon and secure with a lemongrass stick, simple bamboo skewer or whatever else you can find. Serve with dipping sauce on the side.
