sieved tomatoes / sieved tomato sauce
Explanation:
Tomatoes are "passed" trough a thin sieve, either cooked or not, and that is "pasaje de tomate". The rest go by themselves: oyster mushrooms and kalamata olives' tapenade.

Explanation:
Hi, it sounds like the "lomo de atun" is served with tomatoes, mushrooms and tapenade on the side rather than with a sauce. Hope it helps.

  • Tuna served with/accompanied with tomatoes, mushrooms, etc..
