Tuna Steaks with Asparagus and Sugar Snap Peas


Friday 4 May
We still had half of the asparagus and peas from the Northside Farmers' Market, so decided to cook them quite plainly beside a pair of  defrosted 'ahi tuna steaks. 
We shallow-boiled the trimmed asparagus and peas with salt from our dried capers, and seared the tuna in butter and olive oil in another pan, then removed the fish and deglazed with a splash each of lemon juice, wine, and the rinsed capers, to make a savory sauce. 
Today the temperature went up to 89ยบ, so maybe we need to stop buying "spring" asparagus.
