How to Make Mediterranean Tuna And Rice Pie

  1. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring often, for 7-8 minutes, or until onion is softened.
  2. Increase heat to high. Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  3. Stir in stock. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes.

  5. Transfer rice to a large bowl and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan-forced). Grease and line the base of a 6cm deep, 20cm springform pan.
  7. Add drained tuna, drained chopped tomatoes, bocconcini, parmesan cheese, spinach, and beaten eggs to the cooled rice. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  8. Gently mix until well combined.
  9. Press the rice mixture into the prepared pan.
  10. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until golden brown and set. The edges should be crisp.
  11. Let the pie stand in the pan for 10 minutes before running a knife around the edge to loosen.
  12. Cut into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy!
