2 tablespoons bonito flakes
1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons Sriracha
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup canola oil, plus more for frying
3 egg whites
2 tablespoons cornstarch
One 12-ounce piece tuna, cut into four 4 x 1 1/2-inch pieces
Seven 4-inch rice crackers, ground to small crumbs
2 scallions, white parts only, thinly sliced

1
Place bonito flakes in medium-sized bowl and cover with three tablespoons of hot water. Set aside for ten minutes. Strain through a sieve, pressing excess moisture out of the bonito flakes. Discard flakes, and transfer liquid to a blender.
2
Add egg yolk, lime juice, orange juice, sriracha, and salt to blender. Process until smooth. With motor running, slowly drizzle in 1/2 cup oil. Pour into bowl, add scallions, and set aside.
3
Pour enough canola oil to come three inches up the side of a medium-sized saucepan. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring to 400u00b0F.
4
Whisk together egg whites and cornstarch in a bowl. Sprinkle ground rice crackers on small plate. Dip each tuna piece in cornstarch mixture, and then dredge in rice crackers.
5
Carefully cook each piece of tuna in oil for 30 seconds, about two at a time. Drain on paper towels. Slice tuna crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Serve tuna with sauce.
