Cold tuna/ Hot tuna ! (emergency dish!)

So one of my 'things' is to be able to scrap up a fast dish.
I rarely go by recipe, I'm more of a 'what's in the fridge' type of cook.

Here are 2 dishes with canned-tuna-in-brine that you can do if you don't have much time.



Hot dish :

-Butter
- Drained tuna
- Mushrooms of choice (i use the small white ones)
- Heavy cream
- Nutmeg
-Fresh ground pepper
- Optional: coconut flour (1 tablespoon)

Execution:
Put a sauce pot on the stove.
Set heat to 3 (out of 6)
Put in a few slices of butter, depending on how 'buttery' you want the sauce to be.
Dice the mushrooms and chuck them in!
Let simmer for a few minutes, the butter will first get absorbed, don't add more, it will return to the pot in a bit.
When the mushrooms are cooked and the sauce looks thicker, if it's not thick enough, chuck in the coconut flour and leave it simmer for a minute more.

Put the drained tuna in a bowl, add the sauce.

Voila!! It's a hot dish!!




Cold dish :

- Drained tuna
- Half a tomato
- Half a green bell pepper
- 1 tablespoon of mustard.

Optional choices :
-Dill
-Homemade mayo
- Chopped boiled egg
- raw olive oil

Execution:

Just chop up everything, add all in a bowl, salad style.
Add the mustard in the end and mix it with the salad.
Enjoy a cool dish!!
