Tuna Steak Masala

Tuna steak is a popular dish in many parts of the world. It is a rich source of omega-3 and niacin and is considered a healthier alternative to beef steaks by many health pundits. Tuna steaks also sounds like a nice candle light dinner sort of a dish.
I got some Ahi Tuna recently from the market and wanted to make a steak which has some Indian influence in it. So I developed a new recipe, I call it the Tuna Steak Masala.
The idea of the dish is simple, prepare a masala using Indian spices and cook the steaks using the masala.
If you love fish, this is a dish you would adore.
