Return the tuna, tip in the potato and carrot, and pour over the stock.
4
Cover and let it murmur gently for 35-40 minutes until everything is spoon-tender and the broth has body.
5
Season with salt and cracked pepper, then shower with fresh basil right before serving.

Chef's tip

Let the dish rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving so the flavours settle.
