    greek tuna fish starter

    This greek tuna fish starter was the first ever recipe I posted on my dutch blog "gerechtenweb", back already in 2007. I rediscovered it recently, and decided to translate it in English also.

    Ingredients:

    • 200 gr tuna (fresh is the best, canned is also ok)
    • 4 pickles
    • about 15 black stoned olives (green is also good, but black tastes better)
    • 1 shallot
    • 4 vine tomatoes
    • good olive oil
    • soy sauce
    • mustard
    • fresh ginger root
    • 100 grams of feta cheese in cubes
    • cress for decoration (you can also use rucola salad or so)

    Preparation:
    Tuna mixture:

    • Finely chop the tuna steak.
    • Finely chop the pickles, the olives and the shallots and add them to the tuna.
    • Let the tomatoes scorch in boiling water so that you can easily remove the skin.
    • Remove the seeds and cut the flesh into small cubes.
    • Add this to the mixture as well.

    Dressing:

    • Take 6 parts of olive oil and one part of soy sauce.
    • Add a pinch of mustard.
    • Grate a lot of ginger and add it.
    • if you want, you can also use additional herbs with black pepper.
    • Mix the dressing well.
    • Add a bit of the dressing to the tuna mixture.
    • Put both the tuna mixture and the dressing in the refrigerator for an hour.

      Serving:

    • Fill a mold with the mixture and turn it on a plate.
    • Garnish with feta cubes and a tuft of cress.
    • Sprinkle with the remaining dressing (first mix the dressing well)
