Italian Tuna Ftira
Crunchy ftira bread with a pesto/tuna filling.
Ingredients for 2 Portions:
2 cans (240g) Blue Angel Tuna in Sunflower Oil (drained)
20g Ready-Made Pesto Sauce
50g Roasted Red Peppers (sliced)
25g Sun-dried Tomatoes (chopped)
1/2 Red Onion (thinly sliced)
20g Fresh Spinach Leaves
100g Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
Fresh Basil Leaves
2 Maltese Small Ftira Buns
Olitalia Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for drizzling)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Cut the pepper and roast it in a hot oven/air fryer for about 20 minutes. Then place it in a bowl and cover it for 10 minutes. It will make it easier to peel.
In a bowl, mix the drained tuna with the pesto sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Cut the ftira bread in half. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil on the inside of the bread and lightly toast in a hot skillet.
Layer the bottom half with fresh spinach leaves.
Spoon the tuna mixture on top of the spinach.
Add some sliced roasted red peppers, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion.
Top with slices of fresh mozzarella cheese.
Add fresh basil leaves if desired.
