Tuna steaks feature often in our household – they have a lovely meaty texture. We usually marinade them, but today they were simply pan fried with some sesame oil. The flavour came from the beans we served with them:

Beans, Kidney or Cannellini, White, Canned -1 Can/240g

Oil, Olive – 8ml

Onions, Red – 27g

Garlic, Raw – 1 Clove/3g

Rosemary, Dried – ½ Tsp/0.5g

Water – 30ml

Method

Peel and finely chop onion and garlic. Place oil in a pan and heat over a medium heat. Add onions and fry until softened – don’t allow to brown. Add garlic and continue to cook for a further minute. Add water and rosemary, plus drained beans. At this point I add my gummy tomatoes recipe (2 portions) and continue to heat over a low heat for 15 minutes.
