Tuna Tapenade

Serves 6 as an appetizer

I’ve been making tapenade — a kind of Provençal gentleman’s relish — with tuna as well as the requisite capers, anchovies and olives for years. The Provençaux argue about whether this is correct, but it tastes so good so who cares? its a treat to have a bowl of it in the fridge for snacking on.

Ingredients

  • Tuna in Olive Oil 1 x 200 g tin, drained
  • Anchovies in Olive Oil 2 x 55 g tins
  • Black Olives 150 g drained weight, pitted
  • Juice of ½ Lemon
  • Garlic 2 cloves, crushed
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil 50 ml
  • Brandy 1 Tbs
  • Thyme Leaves of 2 sprigs
  • Parsley chopped, 2 Tbs

Make It

  1. Put all the ingredients in a food processor and blend. Use the pulse button if you want a coarse puree.
