This is a basic tuna pie, it is very easy and you Hill have it
readt in no time.
Ingredients for the crust
500 grams of flour12 tablespoons of used oil. (you can use the
oil from the preparation of the filling.
200 ml. of warm water
1 teaspoon of salt 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika
Ingredients for the filling
200 ml of olive oil
1 medium onion
1 eggplant
2 green peppers
6 tablespoons of tomato sauce
200 grams of tuna
Peel and finely dice the
onion, eggplant, and peppers.
In a frying pan warm the oil when it is warmed
all of the peeled chopped ingredients.
Allow to fry over a low heat for about 20 minutes,
after that time remove from the heat and with a tablespoon separate
12 to 14 spoons full that we will use for the dough.
Add the tomato sauce and tuna mix well and
allow to cool.
Separate from 12 to 14 tablespoons
of oil from the mix, strain and set aside.
Add
to the oil the tablespoon of páprika. Mix
well.
Put all the ingredients in a large
bowl and mix. Lightly oil a rolling pin with clean oil.
Prepare a smooth flan surface
and rub lightly with oil so the dough does not stick.
Begin to knead the dough until you have
a fine elastic dough. When you see that it no longer sticks
to the surface it is ready.
Empieza a amasar hasta que consigas una
masa fina y elástica, cuando veas que no se pega ni
a las manos ni a la encimera ya la tienes lista.
Cut
the dough into two balls. With a rolling pin spread the
dough until you have a round large enough for your pie tin.
It does not need to be too fine, like you see in the photo.
You
have rolled the first ball of dough, with this you will
line the pie tin about 30 to 40 cm in diameter. As you see
in the photo on the left..
Next
you fill this with the filling.
Now you have the filling complete
.
With the second ball you begin to form the top for the pie.
With the small
ball you have left we will adorn the top of the pie. You
need to roll out the dough and cut it into strips.
Once you have trimmed
the edges you must pinch the crust closed. Pinch the edges
so the top layer seals with the lower.
Con la pequeña
bola que has formado con los bordes sobrante, vamos a poner
unos adornos, solo tienes que estirar con el rodillo sobre
la encimera e ir cortando con el cuchillo unas tiras finas.
With the small ball you have left we will adorn
the top of the pie. You need to roll out the dough and cut
it into strips.
Begin to place them on top as you see in the photo or in
any pattern you may choose.
Ya la tenemos decorada.
Prepare the oven at a temperature of
400ºF and place the dish in the center of the oven.
While the pie is in the oven
check occasionally, it will need to cook from 30 to 40 minutes
or until it turns golden. Remove from the oven and allow
to cool, once cool it is ready to eat.
As you can see the decoration can take many
forms including the name of a loved one you may wish to
honor.
