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.
