INSTRUCTIONS

GARNISH
set 4 bamboo skewers to soak in warm water.
Preheat the broiler or compression grill for 10 minutes.
For the sauce: Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium high heat and fry
the garlic and ginger for 2 minutes to release flavorful oils. Add 1/4 cup
of the wine, tamari, brown sugar, and Shanghai Spice Mix. Remove from the
heat and add the peanut butter, stirring until smooth. Set aside and keep
warm.
For the tuna kebabs: String 5 tuna pieces and 4 artichoke halves
alternately on each bamboo skewer, starting and ending with tuna. Brush the
kebabs with the sauce. Broil the kebabs for 3 minutes on each side or until
the tuna is white throughout.
Add the remaining wine to the rest of the sauce to thin it to a pouring
consistency.
Serve kebabs garnished with chopped cilantro or parsley on top.
Yield: 4 servings
Note: To make Shanghai Ethmix:
7 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes 2 3/4 teaspoons ground ginger
2 3/4 teaspoons ground anise
Grind to a fine powder.
