Method

Place the tuna, mayonnaise, Black Garlic cloves, capers, anchovy fillets and lemon juice into a food processor. Blitz until the Black Garlic tonnato sauce is smooth. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Spoon and spread a quarter of the tonnato sauce onto a serving plate.

Top Tip: the addition of anchovy fillets to the mixture gives an extra umami kick alongside the Black Garlic.
