Instructions

Wash and peel the potatoes. Put water to boil in a pot and add the sliced potatoes, salt, and some oil. Let it cook.

While the potatoes are cooking, add some oil to a pan and add the sliced onion. Let it cook over medium heat for 4 minutes. Add the tomato sauce and tuna and mix. Let it sit for about 2-3 minutes before removing from the heat.

When the potatoes are tender, remove from the pot and drain.

Add the milk to the pot and heat it up. Once hot add the potatoes and start to mash with a fork. Little by little the liquid will begin to disappear, and you will see the mashed potatoes come to life.

Now put the plate together: place a layer of the mashed potato, then a layer of the tuna and tomato sauce, followed by another layer of mashed potato. Finish it off by adding another layer of tuna and tomato sauce. Sprinkle on a bit of cheese on top. Place in the oven at 400°F to cook au gratin and in less than 5 minutes it'll be ready.
