Terrine Of Potatoes And Tuna
Ingredients
- 1 x 4-c. loaf pan or possibly a terrine, oiled
- 2 1/4 lb Russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes, (6 c.)
- 1 c. Warm lowfat milk
- 1 1/2 tsp Salt
- Freshly grnd pepper
- 1 x Red bell pepper
- 2 can (6 1/4 ounce) tuna, packed in water
- 1 c. Mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp. Capers
Directions
- In a saucepan, cover the potatoes with cool salted water and bring to a boil. Partially cover and cook for 15 min, or possibly till tender. Drain and mash the potatoes with an old-fashioned masher, ricer, or possibly through a strainer. Beat in the warm lowfat milk. Season with salt and pepper.
- Char the red pepper over a burner. Put it in a plastic bag and set aside to cold. Then peel and cut into 1/4-inch cubes. Set aside.
- Drain the tuna and process for 1 min in the food processor.
- Combine the mashed potatoes, tuna, and mayonnaise. Mix thoroughly. Mix in the red pepper. Taste and correct seasonings.
- Put the mix in the prepared mold and chill till cool or possibly overnight.
- Decorate the top with capers. Serve with more capers, gherkins, and olives on the side.
- NOTE: Try this for summer picnics, informal buffets, lunch, cocktails, or possibly as a filling for sandwiches. It's absolutely delicious and easy to make!
- The word terrine applies to both the dish and its contents. The terrine is served in the dish, without unmolding. There are pretty porcelain, terra cotta, and enameled cast-iron terrrines on the market, but it is not necessary to own one to make this dish-a glass loaf pan works fine. This terrine is looser in texture than a country pate'. It will be easier to scoop out the terrine with a spoon rather than trying to cut it in slices.
