Tuna Fish in Tomato Sauce (Atún con Tomate )
Four servings: 1/2 kilo of fresh tuna fish cut into 1-in
dices; 1 onion, cut into brunoise; 250 dl of fried tomato; 2
garlic cloves, cut into small dices; 1 dl of olive oil; salt &
black pepper; half a glass of white wine; a pinch of
oregano & 1 bay leave.
Preparation: Fry the tuna dices on an intense heat in a
pan with 3 tbsp of olive oil, and reserve (the ideas is to
"seal" the external side of the tuna dices and leave the
central part of them more juicy). On another clean pan
add 2 tbsp of olive, fry the garlic and add the onion
before the garlic turns too brown; keep frying both
ingredients on a low fire for some minutes, add the
tomato and allow 10 minutes of cooking on low heat.
Once this process is over, add the tuna fish, the salt, the
pepper and the wine; stir the ingredients to get a perfect
combination and allow 2 or 3 minutes on a low heat (The
sauce must have a thick aspect). Some potatoes, sliced
and fried in some olive oil, can be added to the recipe .
