Ingredients

  • Tuna (cut into rounds) – to taste
  • Salt – to taste
  • Pepper – to taste
  • Ground Nutmeg – to taste
  • Garlic Powder – to taste
  • Lime or Lemon Juice – for marinating
  • Coating:
    • All-Purpose Flour – enough to coat
    • 1 Egg (beaten)
    • Oats – enough to coat

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tuna: Begin by marinating the tuna rounds with lime or lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, ground pepper, and nutmeg. Allow the mixture to rest for about 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.

  2. Coat the Tuna: After marination, coat each piece of tuna with all-purpose flour. Next, dip the flour-coated tuna into the beaten egg, ensuring an even coating. Finally, roll the tuna in oats to create a crunchy exterior.

  3. Fry the Tuna: In a deep skillet, heat a generous amount of oil until it reaches a high temperature. Carefully place the coated tuna into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy. Once cooked, remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  4. Serve: Your Tuna Lapis Oat is now ready to be served! Pair it with mayonnaise or tomato sambal for an extra burst of flavor.

Enjoy!

This Tuna Lapis Oat dish combines the delightful taste of marinated tuna with the wholesome crunch of oats, creating a satisfying meal perfect for any occasion.
