   Set aside.

3. 3

   Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat.

   Salt and pepper the tuna steaks; then, when the pan is fairly searing, add the tuna.

5. 5

   Let cook on one side for about 4 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side for another 4 minutes.

   When the tuna is almost done, and with the heat still high, add the soy sauce mixture and allow it to bubble and reduce, tilting the pan so the liquid gets all around.

8. 8

   Remove from heat.

9. 9

   Toss together the tomato and cucumber, then sprinkle with vinegar, sesame oil, salt and pepper to taste.
