2 tablespoon chopped green onion, white and green parts |
2 teaspoons tobiko (flying fish roe) |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves |
peanut oil, for frying |
18 (3-inch-square) wonton skins |
2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1/2 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons wasabi paste |
2 teaspoons ground toasted sesame seeds |

Directions:
1. Cut 1/4 pound of the tuna against the grain into 12 thin slices. Finely chop the other 1/2 pound for the tartare.

6. Sprinkle the top of the each napoleon with the reserved radish sprouts. Drizzle 3 tablespoons of the dressing around each plate. Garnish with pickled ginger and tobiko.
7. To serve, cut through the entire stack with a knife, and smash the layers together with a fork to blend the flavors.
