Line a fine sieve with one square kitchen paper and set it over a bowl. Empty the tuna and fromage frais into the sieve.
Let them drain for an hour or two — don't go much longer, as you want to keep a little moisture for the mousse.
Stir in the lime juice, chopped chives, and egg yolk. Season with salt and pepper to your taste, then mix again until everything is well combined.
Cover the bowl with food wrap and refrigerate until you're ready to serve. For the best texture, take the dip out of the fridge about 20 minutes before serving to let it come to room temperature.
