Kim's recipe for Tuna Tacos

Danny Himself · 11.26.2006, 07:36 AM

This is Kim's recipe for tuna tacos from Sassy magazine’s September 1992 issue.

I lived on these tacos when I was a poor struggling art student in
LA. They're nice and light for hot weather dining. My fantasy is that
they're not as fattening as a regular tuna sandwich, because I always eat too many. See ya, Kim

Tuna Tacos Culver City

1 can chunk white dolphin-safe tuna in springwater
1 glob mayo (as you like it)
1/2 lemon squeezed
1 or 2 finely chopped jalapenos or small green chilies
4 fresh-as-you-can-find corn tortillas
butter
watercress

Mix tuna, mayo, lemon, onion, and chilies in a bowl. Sprinkle water on
tortillas, then heat one at a time on open low flame (gas stove only) or in a
skillet, 15 to 30 seconds on each side.
Remove while still soft and smear with butter.
Put tuna in middle, top with sprigs of watercress, fold and chow.

P.S. The banana-Nilla Wafer sandwiches are Thurston's idea of food.
Recipe: Slice banana and put between two Nilla Wafers.

Like most fish, when tuna is fresh, it doesn't have that "fishy" smell. Canned tuna, however, might smell like whatever it is packed it.

I like tuna man, it is the best.

Haha, how high were you when you posted that? That's like the worst joke you ever made, ever.

Just like Denis Leary says, we just want to save the cute animals.
