Tuna bake

an easy recipe for a light snack ... good eaten warm with a salad , or again cold





Ingredients

• 1 tin of tuna 
• 1 roll of puff pastry 
• Some mustard 
• Some cheese (cheddar ) 
• 1 egg white 
• 1 egg yolk 
• some mushroom 
• Some soya sauce
• Some spinach (optional ) 
• Some pine kernels 
• Some fresh coriander (optional) 
• Salt 
• Pepper 

Put some diced mushroom in a frying pan with a sprinkle of olive oil ,  sweat on medium fire , when getting brown add a sprinkle of soya sauce  and cook a few minutes stirring ...leave to cool and squeeze any liquid out of the cooked mushrooms
I had blanched some fresh spinach , and strained it well (using a bamboo matt ) so that there is no water left ... i used only a bit of it , keeping the rest for another recipe which i will put here soon
Drain the tuna and mix in a bowl with the grated cheese , a good table spoon of mustard , some of the blanched spinach , the pine kernels , the egg white , the cooled and drained mushroom , salt and pepper ..mix well ..it should hold well ..if it is not , then add a few bread crumbs

Spread the pastry out ( keep the oven paper on which it is rolled) and put your tuna mixture on the centre in a rectangular shape
Cut some stripes on both sides of the tuna mixture

Arrange all the stripes in a criss-cross pattern over the mixture  ( sorry i will put the pictures some other time , I forgot :)  )

When all the mixture is covered by the pastry , spread the egg yolk over the pastry with a brush
Put in an oven 180degrees  for 45 min

serve with a salad
