Slice mushrooms and onion. Melt butter over high heat. Sear mushrooms and onion for 2 min without stirring, then reduce heat and cook for 6-8 min until liquid evaporates. Season with salt and pepper.

Remove pan from heat. Flake the drained tuna into the pan. Add half the parsley. Gently mix and let cool.

In a bowl, whisk eggs until slightly frothy. Incorporate the flavored cream. Add pepper (the cream and tuna are already salted).

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden and the center is firm but soft to the touch.

Let cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
- To drain tuna well, press it in a sieve and blot with paper towel.
- Searing mushrooms over high heat prevents them from releasing too much water and colors them perfectly.
- Blind baking the pastry is crucial for a crispy crust despite the moist filling.
- Variation: add 100g chopped spinach at the end of cooking the mushrooms or 50g grated Gruyère before baking.
- Wine pairing: serve with a dry white wine (Chardonnay) or a Provencal rosé.
