Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by peeling the large potatoes and cutting them into chunks. In a frying pan, heat oil and sauté the shallots and garlic until they are fragrant and golden. Add the potato chunks and fry until they are tender. Once cooked, allow the potatoes to cool, then mash them together with the sautéed shallots, garlic, black pepper, and salt until smooth.

Incorporate the Tuna: Take the tuna and cook it in a pan until it is half-cooked, then let it cool. After it has cooled, combine it with the mashed potato mixture, mixing until fully integrated.
