Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C.
  2. Place the potatoes on a plate and microwave on high for 7 mins. Carefully turn over, using a pair of tongs, and microwave for a further 7-8 mins until they are soft in the centre. Cook for a little longer if your potatoes are particularly large.
  3. Place on a tray in the preheated oven to crisp up whilst you make the filling.
  4. In a bowl, mix together the tuna, most of the spring onions and chilli, all of the mayo, soy sauce, sesame oil, the lime zest and juice and most of the coriander.
  5. Cut the potatoes in half and divide the tuna filling between them. Top with the remaining spring onions, coriander and chilli. Drizzle over some sriracha and a pinch of black sesame seeds, if you like.
