• Tuna with Mushrooms in Cream Sauce

  Date: 2008.04.18 | Category: Kitchen experiments | Response: 0

  Chelle says it’s tuna casserole but I don’t know. ^^;;; Gomen, I just made it according to gut feel. In high school, my bestfriend used to cook tuna and mushrooms a lot. And she would pour some cream sauce over it. It’s been ages since I ate that and because JM wanted to eat something different, I prepared something close to it. XD

  Ingredients:

  • 1 can of Century Tuna (the one in oil)
  • half a tetrapack of Nestle Cream
  • 1 small can of mushrooms
  • Eden cheese – the snack pack type

  Instructions:

  1. Heat up the tuna in some of its oil.
  2. Add the mushrooms.
  3. Pour in the cream.
  4. Grate the cheese into the mix.
  5. Let it simmer.
  6. Add some pepper if you want it a bit spicy.

  Clair’s Notes:

  • You can use the tuna with hot and spicy oil. It’s yummy if you love spicy stuff. I don’t think the other variants of tuna in can such as Tuna in Asado or Tuna adobo would taste as good when used in this recipe.
  • Don’t use too much oil. It will end up bleh~
  • If you prefer tuna in brine or in water, maybe use margarine just to make sure it won’t stick to the pan.
  • Don’t cook the cream for too long. My friends say it might curdle.
  • You could opt to lessen the cheese.

  It could serve two to four people, depending on the appetite. Also, we had other viands around so there was more than enough for us.
