3 To make pesto, purée celery leaves, spin- ach, olive oil, rice wine vinegar and garlic with a hand blender or in a regular blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve. 4 Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil in a fry- ing pan over high heat. Add tuna and cook each piece 1 minute per side on 4 sides, about 4 minutes altogether. Remove from pan and slice tuna into ½-inch (1-cm) slices. 5 To continue salad, drain vegetables and toss with radish shoots, olive oil and lime juice. 6 Spoon 1 tbsp (15 mL) pesto onto each serv- ing plate. Lay tuna slices over pesto and top with salad. Serves 4

SALAD ½ cup (125 mL) julienned daikon radish ½ cup (125 mL) julienned celery root ½ cup (125 mL) julienned red onion 1 cup (250 mL) radish shoots

1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil ½ tsp (2 mL) lime juice

CELERY LEAF PESTO 1 cup (250 mL) celery leaves 2 cups (500 mL) baby spinach ¼ cup (60 mL) olive oil 1 tsp (5 mL) seasoned rice wine vinegar ¼ tsp (1 mL) chopped garlic Salt and freshly ground pepper

SEARED TUNA WITH CELERY-LEAF PESTO

If you have any leftover pesto, mix with chopped egg or tuna. It also adds some pizazz to pasta. Because tuna is thick, it has 4 sides for searing, not two.

1 Season tuna with salt and let sit for 10 min- utes. Sprinkle pepper evenly over each por- tion. 2 To begin preparing salad, combine daikon, celery root and red onion in a bowl of cold water. This keeps it crisp. Reserve.
