"Ventresca is the name for the belly of the tuna, in my mind it’s the best part of the fish to eat, succulent and oily, but in a good healthy way. Spanish and French producers make the best of all and I often treat myself to a large tin that will last me a while. I use the oil from the tin to make an anchoide, a flavoured mayonnaise-type sauce with capers and anchovies which works so well with it. It’s a staple in our restaurant the seahorse," Mitch Tonks
-
Blend all the anchoide ingredients, keeping back the oil, until smooth.
-
Slowly incorporate the oil until desired consistency as if making a mayonnaise.
-
Cook the potatoes until just done and the same for the asparagus, let them cool.
-
Place the lettuce, tomatoes, asparagus, potatoes, red onion and olives in a bowl.
-
Make a dressing from the olive oil and lemon juice by whisking together. Season.
-
Assemble on a plate, adding the tuna and quartered eggs then serving with a tablespoon of the anchoide alongside.
