Get the grill really hot before cooking the tuna.

Season the tuna steaks with salt, pepper, and olive oil on both sides.

Add the tuna steaks to the hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side depending on your preference.

While the tuna is cooking, prepare the sides by blanching baby japanese turnips for 2 minutes.

In a hot pan, add olive oil and sauté the blanched turnips for about 4 minutes until cooked through.

For the curry potatoes, slice baby gold potatoes in half and mix with a curry paste made from cooking onions until golden brown, then blending with garlic, tomato paste, garam masala, cumin, and apple cider vinegar.

Transfer the potatoes to a roasting tray, cover with foil, and cook in the oven for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes, remove the foil and cook the potatoes for an additional 10-15 minutes until golden.
