Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add tuna, capers, olives, and parsley, mixing well.

Stir in cooked potatoes and season with black pepper and lemon juice.

Spread the mixture evenly over the pastry base.

Beat an egg and brush it over the pie crust for a golden finish.

Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 30-35 minutes.

Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
