This is a good (and inexpensive!) sub for the love
This is a good (and inexpensive!) sub for the lovely fresh tuna fillets which let's face it, are now resigned to a rare treat for me due to price. I've been defrosting these (they defrost fairly fast) and then pan frying with a tiny bit of oil. Be really careful not to overcook them - they WILL be tough if you do that. Fresh tuna should always be slightly undercooked in the middle but as this was from frozen I let it cook a minute longer, perfect.
Okay for the money
Considering the general price of Tuna now, these are okay for the money, they are the smaller cuts leftover from big steaks. I've never had an issue cooking these from frozen either on the BBQ, or Oven. It's silly to compare this to fresh tuna as it will never be the same.

A Real Find
Seriously good. A real find. Tuna used to be a real treat when we bought it fresh. This is just as fresh tasting but so much cheaper. Now we can eat it every week. Some reviews have complained about the size of the pieces, sometimes the pieces are small but very thick so I slice them in half to make a larger piece that cooks perfectly. We often use it for salad nicoise. I have always defrosted the tuna and pan fried it, apparently you can cook from frozen, not sure I would recommend this as tuna needs very little cooking to be perfect and melt in the mouth.
very tough - tried cooking from defrosted to see i
very tough - tried cooking from defrosted to see if that made any difference and it didn't. Don't buy!
Horrible
Nasty. Dreadful taste, horrible grey colour, lots of sinews and tough as an old boot. Ended up in the bin. Buy the pre-packaged tuna steaks if you want something edible that costs very little more. Or the fish counter tuna if you must, but buy early or ask for fresher fish from the chiller.

great
Love this tuna. The portions are very small but it's ok for us. I pan-fry them in a bit of butter, it cooks pretty quickly and I love the taste. Great for a quick supper.
