I thought this recipe was just okay. The sesame-coriander crust was a bit too sweet for my taste and the ahi tuna was a bit dry.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the sesame-coriander crust.

The sesame-coriander crust was delicious, but the ahi tuna was a bit overcooked for my taste. I would recommend cooking the fish for a shorter amount of time.
