Ingredients

  1. 1 x Tuna loins (approx. 500g)
  2. 1 leek, finely sliced
  3. 1 carrot, diced
  4. 1 celery stalk, diced
  5. 400g can chopped tomatoes
  6. 400g can cannellini or butter beans, drained and rinsed
  7. 1 cup vegetable or chicken stock
  8. 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  9. ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  10. 1 garlic clove, minced
  11. 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  12. 3 tbsp olive oil (divided)
  13. Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the leek, carrot, and celery, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring until softened. Incorporate the tomatoes, beans, and stock, then simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes until slightly reduced. Stir in the mustard.
  2. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Lightly grease 4 individual baking dishes or ramekins with oil.
  3. In a lightly oiled pan, sear the tuna loins for 1 minute on each side. Cut them into bite-sized pieces. Layer the beans, followed by the tuna, and then more beans in each dish.
  4. In a bowl, combine panko, garlic, parsley, and 1 tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the layered ingredients. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and bubbling. Serve with a salad.

Chef's Tip

Tuna works beautifully in slow-cooked dishes like cassoulet when treated gently. A quick sear before baking helps lock in moisture and keeps the tuna tender and slightly pink in the center rather than dry and flaky. The rich beans, tomato, and herb crumb bring warmth and depth, while the fresh tuna keeps the dish lighter and more refined than traditional cassoulet.
