Pan Bagna
- 1 garlic clove, peeled and chopped
- Pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoons good-quality olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 4 or 5 very thin slices onion
- 4 or 5 thin slices red, ripe tomatoes
- 2 or 3 sliced radishes
- 3 or 4 pitted black Mediterranean-style olives
- 2 to 3 tablespoons well-drained canned tuna
- 6 anchovy fillets
- Cut roll in half and, using a fork, scrape away some of the bread crumbs from the middle of each half, leaving more room for sandwich ingredients.
- With the flat blade of a knife, mash garlic to a paste with the salt.
- Mix with olive oil and vinegar and coat the open side of each half of the roll with the mixture.
- Set aside for about 20 minutes to let the bread get impregnated with the oil and vinegar.
- On bottom half of roll, layer onions, tomatoes, radishes and olives.
- Sprinkle the flaked tuna over the top and arrange the anchovy fillets in a lattice pattern.
- Place top half on the sandwich.
- Weight the sandwich down to press ingredients together and set aside for an hour or longer.
- Just before serving, remove weights and cut sandwich in half.
