Techniques
- 1 can can of tuna in olive oil
Drain the tuna in a fine sieve over a bowl, gently flaking it to remove excess oil.
- 60 g canned tomato sauce
- 10 whole pimento stuffed Spanish green olives
- sea salt
- freshly cracked black pepper
Mix the tuna with the tomato sauce, olives, sea salt and black pepper, pressing the olives so they break apart slightly.
Mixing the tuna filling
- 2 whole eggs
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Whisk the eggs with the parsley, sea salt and black pepper in a shallow bowl.
- 8 slices slices of regular white sandwich bread
- all purpose flour
Cut the crusts off the bread and roll each slice thin with a lightly floured rolling pin.
Rolling out the bread
Add a spoonful of filling, not too much, fold over and crimp the edges with a fork on both sides to seal.
- fresh parsley
Drain on paper towels; transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley.
