- For the plantains: Using a vegetable peeler, thinly shave the plantains and place the shavings in a large bowl covered with water so they do not turn brown.
- Next, bring the vegetable oil to a light smoke on medium-high heat in a large saute pan.
- Once lightly smoking place in each of the plantain shavings, making sure not to overlap them.
- Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until crispy.
- Once cooked remove them from the oil and allow them to drain on a paper towel.
- Season with salt and pepper and repeat with the remaining plantains.
- For the tuna: In a large bowl thoroughly mix together tuna, garlic, ginger, jalapeno, red and green onion, soy sauce, lemon and lime juice.
- Once combined season with salt and pepper and chill.
- Next place a tall ring mold in the center of a white plate.
- Place enough of the tuna ceviche mixture to fill 1/2 of the ring mold.
- Pat down to make sure the ceviche is held together.
- Fill the next 1/4 of the mold with small diced avocado, pat down, and top off the remaining 1/4 of the mold with small diced tomato.
- Then simply pull up on the ring mold to remove it and form your tuna ceviche tower.
- Serve the plantains in a wine glass alongside the mold.
