Eggs
- Prepare some thin omelets. With a fork, beat 3 eggs with a pinch of four-spice, salt, pepper and paprika.
- Heat a little butter in a non-stick skillet and pour in the egg mixture.
- Let set over high heat for a few seconds, then on low heat for a few minutes.
- Turn the omelette gently with a spatula.
- Set aside and repeat two more times, then let the omelets cool.
Tomato tartare and Finishing

- Spread a thin layer of the tuna mixture on top of the buckwheat galette and roll up tightly in plastic wrap. Make three rolls in total.
- Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
- For the tomato tartare: Cut the tomatoes into small cubes and dress with 1 Tbsp. olive oil, some chives and ½ tsp. cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove the plastic wrap and roll the rolls in the poppy seed. Cut each roll into 6 equal slices.
- Serve 3 Breizh rolls per person, accompanied by the tomato tartare and a green salad.
