6 store bought moo shu wrappers about 7” in diameter
1/2 cup kabayaki sauce (the kind used on eel sushi)
1/4 fresh lime juice
1/2 pound  yellowfin tuna (U.S.A. line-caught) 
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onions 
1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
1 cup mung bean sprouts
1 cup  anchovy  aioli
hot red pepper sauce to taste
        
1. Remove the bloodline in the fillet of yellowtail tuna. Cut the remaining tuna into 1/4 inch dice. 

2. In a small bowl combine the tuna,  kabayaki sauce and lime juice. Gently combine and set the bowl aside.

3. In a separate bowl, toss the red onions, cilantro leaves and bean sprouts. Set aside.

4.Over the warm coals of a grill or in a warm skillet, gently heat the moo shu wrappers until softened. 

5. Working “burrito style” fill each wrapper with 1/6 of the tuna mixture, garnish with the sprouts mix. Top this with a dollop of anchovy aioli and hot red pepper sauce to taste. Roll them so that the mixture does not leak out and serve.
