(Polpette di Tonno)
 
 
Ingredients:

1 and 1/2 lbs of fresh tuna fish

1 cup flour
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste


Directions:

Put tuna in a bowl and add pine nuts, 1 egg, some salt and pepper, minced parsley and about 3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs.

Coat and knead well the mixture till it is compact and blended.
