Tuna with Hummus, Grilled Aubergines and Cherry Tomatoes
Ingredients
Rio Mare Tuna in Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2 x 80g cans
Boiled chickpeas 250g
Sesame 2 tbsp
Ice cubes 4
Lime 1
Extra-virgin olive oil 50g
Big aubergine 1
Red, yellow and green Cherry tomatoes 200g
Basil A small bunch
Garlic 1 clove
Salt to taste
Process
1. Cut the aubergine in stripes, and brown them in a non-stick frying pan with 30g of olive oil and a clove of unpeeled, slightly pressed garlic, adding salt and brown until golden.
2. Finely grind the sesame in a food processor, add the chickpeas, the ice-cubes, a bit of salt and the lime juice. Grind all the ingredients together until you get a dense sauce. Add a bit of water if you wish to make it more creamy.
3. Cut the tomatoes and season with the remaining salt and oil.
4. Place the hummus in the center of a plate, lay the tuna on top of the sauce with a drizzle of its oil, and finish off the dish with aubergines, tomatoes and basil. Serve with pita bread or warm tortillas and slices of lime.
