Fried Skipjack Tuna with Tartar Sauce

Since I always eat slapjack tuna seared, I wanted to try a different way of preparing it.

If deep-fried at a high temperature, the batter will turn golden brown and the tuna will be rare. For those who prefer their tuna well done, allow time for the residual heat to cook the insides. Or, reduce the temperature of the oil a bit to cook through to the tuna with a longer frying time. I've added yoghurt to the tartar sauce instead of pickles to reduce the sweetness. Also, there is no problem in omitting the lemon juice. Recipe by nin
