Ingredients
- One jar of Serrats White Tuna (Albacore) in olive oil.
- One large roast pepper, or three piquillo peppers.
- A jar of black olives to make the tapenade.
- 2 grated fleshy tomatoes.
- 3 tbsp of mayonnaise emulsified with milk or cream.
- Optional: Parsley oil: crush 3 parsley twigs with a dash of oil and strain.
Preparation
For the tapenade:
- Blend half a jar of black olives with two tbsp of oil, a dash of vinegar and three anchovies; optionally add some capers (10 or 12).
For the mayonnaise emulsion:
- Whip 2 tbsp with some whole milk or cream.
Preparation
- Place in a ring alternating layers of crumbled tuna, strips of pepper, and cover the mayonnaise emulsion, and on top the tapenade.

The dish looks spectacular and very appetising.
