Vitello Tonnato – but completely without meat

The slightly different Vitello Tonnato, which tastes just as delicious as the Italian original: but mayonnaise and meat-free, light and digestible. Best served cold in summer – with a nice dry white wine.

Ingredients (for 2 people as a starter)

1 tbsp lemon juice
1 jar of high-quality tuna in olive oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 clove of garlic, peeled
Olive oil (4-6 tbsp)
4 tbsp small capers, drained
Sea salt & black pepper
Tomatoes of choice (large sliced thinly or cherry tomatoes quartered)

Preparation:

1. Put lemon juice, tuna, garlic, and 2 tbsp capers into a food processor. Slowly add olive oil while mixing until the paste is smooth and pourable. Season with salt and black pepper.
2. Pour the tonnato sauce onto a plate, add sliced tomatoes on top, and scatter the remaining capers over.
