TUNA TARTAR & Avocado Salad | Bart van Olphen

Hi guys! I'm back in the Maldives to set sail with Captain Hussein and his crew on their Dhoni, a traditional Maldivian tuna fishing boat. Today I am making a beautiful delicate Skipjack TUNA TARTAR with a refreshing avocado salad. I'm cooking in front of the fishermen who are catching Skipjack tuna by pole & line, this means one man, one hook and only one fish, a traditional fishing method which is being used for hundred and hundreds of years. This is one of the most sustainable tuna fisheries in the world, and that makes their tuna even more delicious! Enjoy!

Hey Bart, great recipe! 

My wife and I made some pan seared (sustainable!) scallops+tilapia fillet with oven roasted vegetables and a butter lemon sauce. We decided we should make today a Fishy Friday!

Needless to say, you came up in the dinner conversation, as well as the Food Revolution day. Cheers!

P.S.: She asks me all the time: how do you travel so much? I am willing to believe that your life is magic and that is why, but she wants answers.

I love tartar. Thank you for the recipe!!
While I'm watching the way fishermen catching fish, I also wonder why they don't use huge net like other countries. And now I know. it's Maldives law. LOL

[garydaniels]

Another quality looking dish, looking forward to trying it., Do you volunteer to be the ships cook for the day, some of those guys are probably good cooks themselves did they share any of their recipes, how long are you on the boat?. Thanks Bart.

Loved it!  Thanks for the info on which species of tuna is sustainable.

I always wonder if the people in the background think: "I hope he will give me some"

[TheYankeesboy]

Your pretty cool for cooking on a boat

[ianttyang]

"A teaspoon of mustard..." *Uses fork*

Well done.

[CookingwithKyler]

once again, very exotic location.  Wondering if you take requests?  Uni toast?

[DEMONTOR]

Great that this is sustainable way to fish for tuna! My question is whether the fishermen can make a good living with this method or not, It doesn't look like they can catch large volumes (which is good for the fish and for humans to enjoy fish for the future), but are the fishermen satisfied with their profits?
