Crunchy Tuna Turnovers Recipes

TUNISIAN TUNA-AND-EGG TURNOVER

Steps:

• Mash together tuna, scallions, parsley, capers, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl until tuna is broken up and mixture is combined well.
• Stir together egg white and water in a cup with a fork.
• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 200°F.
• Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet until it registers 350°F on thermometer.
• While vegetable oil is heating, arrange 2 spring-roll wrappers on a work surface and brush centers lightly with olive oil (do not oil edges). Leaving a 1-inch border all around, put 2 tablespoons tuna mixture near lower right corner of 1 wrapper and form mixture into a ring (about 1/2 inch high and 3 inches in diameter) to contain egg.
• Repeat procedure with other wrapper. Brush edges of both wrappers with egg white mixture (use separate brushes for oil and for egg white), then break an egg inside each "ring" and season eggs lightly with salt and pepper. Fold top left corner of each wrapper over egg to form a triangle and press edges together to seal.
• Immediately lift 1 brik gently by tip of triangle and lower into oil, keeping long side of triangle in center of skillet. Repeat with second brik and fry briks, lapping oil over exposed wrappers with a metal spatula, until undersides are golden, about 1 minute. Flip each brik over sideways with aid of 2 metal spatulas, so long side of each triangle stays in center, then continue to fry, lapping exposed wrapper with oil, until wrapper is golden and egg is cooked but yolk is still runny, about 1 minute more. Transfer to paper towels to drain briefly, then put on a baking sheet and keep warm in oven while making remaining briks.
• Make more briks in same manner (using a second baking sheet for keeping last batches warm). Return oil to 350°F between batches.
• Serve briks warm.

TUNA TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except biscuit dough.
• Prepare biscuit dough - or open the tube :).
• If homemade dough, roll out to 1/8-to 1/4 inch thickness. If premade biscuit dough, flatten out each biscuit a bit - I divide them in half if they're the big fat type.
• Cut into 4-inch squares or rounds.
• Place about 2 1/2 T filling onto each dough piece, fold over and pinch to seal.
• I don't bother sealing these all the way - just roll them up and pinch closed across the top. Some of the filling may sneak out the ends, but I prefer them this way.
• Bake 15 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
• To freeze: Bake as directed and allow to cool. Wrap in plastic wrap and then place in a freezer bag. Seal, pushing out as much air as possible. Label and freeze.
• To serve: Allow to thaw in fridge or microwave. Good warm or cold.

• In a separate small pan over medium heat, toast the cooked quinoa until darkened in color and crispy, 4-5 minutes.
• Assemble the roll: Slice the tuna about ⅛ inch thick.
• Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on top of the sushi mat. Carefully arrange the tuna slices, starting at the bottom of the mat, into a 9½ x 3½-inch rectangle. Spoon the crab mixture on top of the tuna toward the bottom of the mat in a thin line. Place the asparagus and avocado on top of the crab mixture, then spoon the tobiko next to the crab. Roll the sushi tightly away from you, leaving about ½ inch of tuna exposed, then roll again until closed tightly. Refrigerate the roll for 30 minutes.
• Trim the ends, then slice the roll crosswise into 8-10 ½-inch-thick pieces. Transfer the sushi to a plate. Spoon a small dollop of lime crema on top of each piece and sprinkle the toasted quinoa over the top and sides. Serve with the ponzu sauce alongside for dipping.

TUNA CRUNCH SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Open the can of tuna, leaving the lid in place after opening it. Invert the whole can over the sink and press the lid into the tuna firmly to squeeze out as much excess water or oil as you can. (Be careful not to cut your fingers on any sharp edges). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.
• Wash your hands well, then grab the boiled egg and squeeze it through your fingers into the bowl with the tuna. Add the celery, olive oil, onion, herbs (if using), mayonnaise, relish (if using) and lemon juice. Using a fork, gently fold together all the ingredients, trying to leave the tuna in relatively large chunks. Grab a few chips and, using your hands, crumble them into the bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and fold again to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste - more salt, pepper and lemon juice if it tastes bland, and more olive oil or mayonnaise if it tastes dry.
• When ready for lunch, spread each slice of bread generously with mayonnaise. Place lettuce on each bottom slice of bread, then top each with half of the tuna salad mixture. Add a generous handful of potato chips on top of each (more than seems reasonable), then close the sandwiches. Press down firmly so the chips break and embed themselves into the tuna salad and the bread. Cut into triangles and serve with extra chips on the side.
