Drain the tuna and piquillo peppers. Blend with the eggs, evaporated milk, cooked tomato sauce and salt until smooth.

Pour into a heatproof non-stick or silicone tin 16 cm across and at least 5 cm deep, filling no more than two-thirds full. Place it on a stable support permitted by the manufacturer.
-
Preheat the empty air fryer for 5 minutes at 160°C.
