Ingredients

  • 1 head of broccoli 300–400 g
  • 1 can of tuna in water
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • A pinch of salt
  • ½ tsp capers
  • 1 tsp Chili flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) on convection mode.
  • Break the broccoli into small florets and spread them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Don’t use foil, broccoli will stick to it.
  • Roast for 5–7 minutes, or until the tops begin to char. Flip the florets and roast for another 5 minutes.
  • Toss the roasted broccoli in a bowl with lemon juice, a bit of olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
  • In a blender, combine drained tuna, mayo, salt, and capers. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add mayo gradually to reach your desired thickness.
  • Plate the broccoli on a serving dish, sprinkle with chili flakes, and serve with a small bowl of tuna dip on the side.
