Zucchini Buds with a Tuna Mustard Filling, Mint and Red Currant
  • 2 cans (320 grams) tuna steak in olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Maille® Dijon Original Mustard
  • 80 grams dairy-free cream cheese
  • 12 walnuts

For the Zucchini Buds:

  • 2 large organic zucchini
  • 3 sprigs of fresh mint
  • 24 red currants

For the mustard dipping sauce:

  • 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Maille® Dijon Original Mustard
  • 2 tbsp of full fat coconut milk
  1. Prepare the filling by mixing all ingredients together in a small bowl.

  2. Wash the zucchini, dry them with a paper towel and cut off the ends. Using a large potato peeler or a mandolin, cut your zucchini into thin slices.

  3. Spread some of the tuna and mustard filling on a strip of zucchini, lay 2 mint leaves on top, then roll it up in a bud-like shape.

  4. Pierce a berry of red currant with a toothpick and insert it diagonally in the zucchini bud to keep it rolled.

  5. Repeat until you rolled up all of your zucchini buds and display on a platter.

  6. Lastly, combine all ingredients for the dipping sauce in a small bowl, mix well and place it in the middle of the platter before serving.
