Tuna and potatoes in sheet of pastry: the easy recipe

The ingredients that we need are very easy to find and usually already present in our homes: potatoes, eggs, canned tuna, grated cheese, breadcrumbs, olives and then aromas and spices to flavor our fish meatloaf, which we will prepare in the most classic of ways, that is, by mixing all the ingredients in a bowl. Easy and fast as I like it!

Once the mixture is ready, we will wrap it in a roll of puff pastry, which we will brush with egg red before baking. Result: a soft crust meatloaf in the inner and crunchy outside, delicious and full of taste.

The potato meatloaf and tuna in crusted is also perfect to prepare the day before serving, we will then just heat it a little in the oven or in the microwave and will immediately regain its fragrance and its taste. But even cold, at room temperature, is still delicious!
