PREPARATION:
For the dip: Blend all the ingredients. Season with salt and pepper and add a little sugar.
For the belly of bonito: Cut the bonito into rectangles (2 per person). One should be slightly larger than the other. Season and flavour with a little ginger. Griddle with a drop of oil, only on the skin side. Remove the skin, spread the fish with the dip and finish under the grill. Set aside.
For the chopped nuts: Roast the nuts separately. Leave to cool then chop roughly. Mix all the ingredients and season.
For the cinnamon sticks:Carefully mix the powdered cinnamon with the oil. Place the sticks in the oil.
For the sauce: Mix all the ingredients except for the cinnamon and boil for 1 minute. Add the cinnamon and leave to stand.
TO SERVE:Stand the tuna fillets upright on the dish. Take a cinnamon stick and set fire to one end. Blow out the flame, and lie the stick to one side of the dish. Cover with a glass dome. The smoke from the cinnamon will lightly smoke the bonito inside the dome. Remove the dome at the table.
