Caesar Dressing
1 x 95g can of tuna in spring water

Steam the whole carrots for 10-15 minutes until just tender. Cool slightly. The carrots are best served warm.
For the dressing, blitz the tuna, garlic, Parmesan, hard-boiled egg yolks, Worcestershire sauce and mustard in a blender or food processor until combined. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the oil. Once thick and creamy, add the vinegar and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Finely chop the egg whites.
