Scale
Ingredients
- 1 boîte de thon au naturel (140 g égoutté) (1 can of natural tuna, drained, 140g)
- 2 œufs durs (2 hard-boiled eggs)
- 3 cuillères à soupe de mayonnaise (3 tablespoons mayonnaise)
- 1 cuillère à café de moutarde (1 teaspoon mustard)
- 1 petite échalote (1 small shallot)
- 1 cuillère à soupe de persil haché (1 tablespoon chopped parsley)
- Sel et poivre (Salt and pepper to taste)
- Film alimentaire pour le façonnage (Cling film/plastic wrap for shaping)
Instructions
- Drain and crumble tuna: Égouttez le thon et émiettez-le dans un saladier. Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and crumble it into a mixing bowl to form a flaky base.
- Prepare eggs and shallot: Écalez et hachez les œufs durs. Émincez finement l’échalote. Peel and finely chop the hard-boiled eggs, and finely mince the small shallot to add flavor and texture.
- Mix all ingredients: Ajoutez la mayonnaise, la moutarde, l’échalote, le persil, du sel et du poivre. Mélangez bien pour obtenir une préparation homogène. Add mayonnaise, mustard, chopped shallot, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Shape the sausage: Déposez la préparation sur un grand morceau de film alimentaire et façonnez un boudin en serrant bien pour donner la forme d’un saucisson. Lay the mixture on a large piece of cling film and shape tightly into a log resembling a sausage, ensuring it holds firm.
Notes
- This dish is best chilled for a couple of hours to firm up and let flavors meld before serving.
- Serve sliced with crusty bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables as an appetizer.
- You can adjust seasoning to taste, adding more mustard or herbs if desired.
- Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid excess moisture affecting the shape.
- This recipe requires no cooking beyond boiling eggs and is quick to assemble.
