Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with a green salad or yogurt sauce.
- If using tuna in oil, drain it well and adjust salt carefully, as it may already be salty.
- Vegetarian variation: replace tuna with grilled vegetables (zucchini, peppers, mushrooms).
- For extra indulgence, add diced melting cheese (like raclette) to the filling.
- To prevent the pastry from puffing too much, lightly prick the unfilled surfaces with a fork before baking.
