- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- 1/4 cup green onions (thinly sliced)

Other:

Instructions
- Prepare the Spicy Tuna: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped ahi tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and green onions. Stir well to coat the tuna evenly.
- Make the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sambal, sriracha, sesame oil, sugar, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust spice level as desired. Set aside.
- Cook the Hashbrowns: Preheat your oven or air fryer according to the package instructions for the hashbrowns. Arrange the hashbrowns in a single layer and spray lightly with oil if desired for extra crispiness.
- Assemble the Bites: Once the hashbrowns are ready, carefully top each one with a spoonful of the spicy tuna mixture. Add a slice of avocado on top if desired, then drizzle with the spicy mayo sauce.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds over each bite for added flavor and a touch of elegance. Serve immediately and enjoy these savory, spicy bites!
Notes
- Use Fresh Tuna: High-quality ahi tuna ensures optimal flavor and texture.
- Adjust Heat: Customize the spice level by altering the amount of sambal and sriracha.
