  3. 3

    Blend with a stick blender until as smooth as possible.

  4. 4

    Stir in the crème fraîche until fully incorporated.

  5. 5

    Transfer the mousse to a piping bag and pipe it over the flattened raw tuna.

  6. 6

    Shave the iceberg lettuce finely over the tuna with a mandoline.

  7. 7

    Drizzle the dark sauce over it and serve immediately.
