/Grilled Cos & Tonnato Sauce
Recipe by Brent Draper
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients
½ cup Coles mayonnaise
1 tbs Coles baby capers, drained
3 anchovy fillets
1 can tuna in olive oil, drained
1 garlic clove, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
½ tsp Coles sea salt
½ tsp Coles black pepper
½ tsp chilli flakes
½ small red onion, finely sliced
2 tbs Squeaky Gate olive oil
2 heads Coles cos lettuce, halved
Method
In a blender, combine tuna, baby capers, garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Blitz until smooth and creamy. Taste—it should be salty and rich.
Drizzle the cut sides of the cos lettuce with olive oil and season with salt.
Place onto a hot grill, cut-side down, and cook until slightly charred. Drizzle with a little more olive oil.
Transfer to a serving plate, fanning the leaves slightly. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice, spoon over the tonnato sauce, and finish with chilli flakes and finely sliced red onion.
