Fresh tuna cooked in vegetables, chopped and fried, with black olives. This is a typical dish from Alghero-Sardinia-Italy.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices (400 g - 14 1/4oz) fresh tuna
  • 1 medium size (70 g - 2 1/2oz) carrot , peeled and chopped
  • 70 g (2 1/2oz) young fresh onion, chopped
  • 40 g (1 1/2oz) celery, chopped
  • 1 dried bay leaves, crumbled
  • 150 ml (5 1/4fl oz - 3/4 C) white wine
  • 40 g (1 1/2oz) stoned black olives, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt

Put the onion, carrot, celery and bay leave in a non-stick frying pan together with the olive oil. Let all the ingredients fry on a low flame. Then add the slices of tuna, black olives, wine and a pinch of salt. Keep on cooking until the cooking juice is well retired (about 20 minutes). Add hot water only if necessary.
